title: [Simple, safe postoperative parenteral nutrition with a ready-to-use all-in-one solution].
abstract: A newly developed, stable and ready-to-use industrially manufactured all-in-one solution for parenteral nutrition, containing amino acids, fat, glucose, xylitol and electrolytes, was tested in a prospective trial involving 21 patients from the 2nd to the 8th postoperative day. No side effects requiring interruption of the nutritional regimen, a positive nitrogen balance and a documented metabolic steady state proved that this solution is a safe therapeutic concept with respect to the typical postoperative metabolism. The all-in-one Vacu-Mix system is easy to handle, reduces the possibility of technical error and ensures safe and constant TPN administration.
