title: Hyperalimentation.
abstract: As widespread use of parenteral nutrition enters the second decade, it is obvious that a great deal of progress has been made, both as to increasing safety and developing new solutions. There are few hard data in this area, not surprising in so young a field. Prospective studies hopefully will yield definitive results in areas in which such knowledge is lacking. More importantly, better understanding of various disease states will undoubtedly result in the modification of existing solutions to allow for better treatment.
