Parenteral nutrition is an integral part of comprehensive care for preterm infants, very low birth weight or critically ill infants, or those unable to take oral nutrition. The composition of parenteral nutrition should be individually tailored for each patient based on their current health status and taking into account possible complications. It is administered until the patient is capable of taking oral nutrition in an amount sufficient to meet nutritional needs. The following series of articles aims to introduce the individual components of parenteral nutrition and the practical significance of individualized parenteral nutrition in neonatology or pediatric departments. The first part of the series is dedicated to an introduction to the topic, water and electrolytes.
Keywords: parenteral nutrition, neonatology, water, electrolytes, minerals.
