Purpose of the Study:
- To present a consensus report on optimal parenteral nutrition (PN) use.
- To provide clear, actionable recommendations for primary healthcare professionals.
- To facilitate the application and success of medical nutrition therapy.
Main Methods:
- Development of a consensus report by the Clinical Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition Society (KEPAN).
- Inclusion of expertise from nine working group and 10 expert group academicians experienced in PN.
- Structuring recommendations in a question-answer format for clarity.
Main Results:
- The report contains 22 distinct, clear-cut recommendations.
- Recommendations cover indications, selection, application, follow-up, and discontinuation of PN.
- The format is designed for ease of understanding and practical use.
Conclusions:
- This report is expected to significantly impact the optimal use of PN.
- It aims to enhance the management of patients requiring medical nutrition therapy.
- The guidance provided is intended for everyday clinical practice.

Parenteral Nutrition (PN) delivers essential nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system. It is commonly used for individuals with severe digestive disorders or conditions that prevent normal nutrient absorption.
PN can be administered through two primary routes:
1. Central Parenteral Nutrition (CPN):
CPN involves delivering a high concentration of nutrients through a large vein. This is typically achieved using a Peripherally Inserted Central Catheter (PICC) or,...

123
Enteral nutrition encompasses various methods of delivering nutrition directly to the gastrointestinal (GI) tract, bypassing traditional oral intake. It is particularly beneficial for patients who cannot eat by mouth but have a functioning digestive system. Key methods include nasointestinal feeding, gastrostomy, and jejunostomy, each suited to different clinical scenarios based on the patient's needs and condition.

Enteral nutrition delivers nutrients directly to the stomach or small intestine through a tube. This method is appropriate for patients who cannot eat but still have a functioning digestive system. It is also beneficial for individuals with swallowing difficulties, anorexia, malabsorption, or those who have undergone gastrointestinal (GI) surgery.

01:18Drug Delivery: Enteral Route
428
The enteral drug administration involves three primary routes: oral, sublingual, and buccal. Oral ingestion is the most prevalent, safe, economical, and convenient method for drug administration. However, it has certain drawbacks, including limited absorption due to the drug's low water solubility or poor membrane permeability, possible emesis from GI mucosa irritation, destruction of drugs by digestive enzymes or low gastric pH, and irregular absorption along with food or other drugs.

01:29Drug Delivery: Parenteral Route
507
The parenteral route is a critical method of drug administration. It delivers compounds directly into the systemic circulation and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. This approach is particularly advantageous for drugs that exhibit poor absorption or instability when administered orally.
There are three primary parenteral routes: intravenous (IV), intramuscular (IM), and subcutaneous (SC). The IV route introduces the drug directly into the bloodstream, ensuring immediate action. The IM route...
