Parenteral nutrition (PN) especially has continued to have an impact on the care of neonates who are unable to ingest sufficient enteral calories and fluids. The use of PN has evolved in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) to minimize the metabolic complications that interrupt normal growth. To deliver PN to neonates, those involved in the ordering and delivery of PN need to be educated and trained to ensure safety and standardization.1 This chapter provides a practical overview to provide optimal nutrition support to neonates in the NICU, keeping in mind the particular conditions and physiology of premature neonates.
