Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) at Home

What is TPN?

Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) is a specialized method of delivering nutrients directly into the bloodstream for individuals who cannot meet their nutritional needs through eating or drinking. Your TPN solution may include a combination of carbohydrates, proteins, fats, electrolytes, vitamins, and trace minerals—customized to meet your specific health needs as determined by you and your physician.
