Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN)
About the Procedure
Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) provides essential nutrients intravenously to newborns who cannot feed orally or tolerate milk feeds. This specialized nutritional support ensures adequate calories, proteins, vitamins, and minerals for growth and organ development. TPN is carefully calculated and monitored by neonatologists to meet the baby’s individual needs while minimizing risks. It plays a critical role in supporting premature infants and those with gastrointestinal complications.
