Nutrition-related risk indexes and long-term mortality in noncritically ill inpatients who receive total parenteral nutrition (prospective multicenter study)

Hyperglycemia During Home Parenteral Nutrition Administration in Patients Without Diabetes

“…Many patients with intestinal failure who are unable to maintain an adequate nutrition status with enteral and/or oral intake alone are dependent on long‐term parenteral nutrition (PN) 1 . ‐ 5 With improvement in techniques, the use of home PN (HPN) has been on a steady rise in the United States and worldwide 6 .…”

Cost‐Effectiveness of Parenteral Nutrition Containing ω‐3 Fatty Acids in Hospitalized Adult Patients From 5 European Countries and the US

“… 4 Economic data such as daily costs, costs per infection, and costs for PN treatment were extracted from published sources for each country and treatment arm (Table 1 ). 4 , 18 , 19 , 20 , 21 , 22 , 23 , 24 , 25 , 26 , 27 , 28 , 29 , 30 , 31 , 32 , 33 , 34 , 35 , 36 , 37 , 38 , 39 , 40 , 41 , 42 , 43 , 44 , 45 , 46 , 47 The models also included inputs on the clinical outcomes nosocomial infections, HLOS, and mortality. The latter 2 parameters defined the end of the patient pathway, whereas the first reflected only costs.…”
