Study Comparing a Soybean Oil-Based With an Olive Oil-Based Lipid Emulsion in ICU Patients Requiring TPN
United States100 participantsStarted 2008-11
Plain-language summary
Many hospitalized patients who are malnourished or not eating receive intravenous feeding or total parenteral nutrition (TPN). Despite improving nutrition, TPN may increase the risk of infections and hospital complications. We do not know why TPN increases hospital complications, but it may be caused by the high sugar or fat content in TPN solutions.
