Parenteral nutrition (PN) support can be managed in the home setting for both a short-term and long-term period or for a lifetime, permitting individuals who cannot adequately absorb nutrients enterally to achieve a normal lifestyle. Nutrition support professionals must be aware of home PN (HPN) management principles before discharge to ensure a smooth transition to home with all requisite monitoring.
