Is routine postoperative PN in well nourished patients beneficial?
That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The routine postoperative parenteral nutrition (PN) in well-nourished patients is not beneficial. This means that providing PN after surgery to patients who are already well-nourished does not provide any additional benefits. It is important to note that PN should be reserved for patients who are malnourished or unable to tolerate oral intake. In well-nourished patients, it is more appropriate to focus on early oral intake and a balanced diet to support their recovery.
