title: [Trace elements in total parenteral nutrition].
abstract: Trace elements execute a vital function in the human body, and their requirements increase depending on the individual pathology of each patient. The present work discusses the amounts of ten trace elements that must be given to a patient in a Total Parenteral Nutrition situation, in relation to his pathology and when to start with each trace element to avoid or forestall complications because of the absence of them. Those trace elements in discussion are: Zinc, Copper, Chromium, Selenium, Molybdenum, Manganese, Iodine, Silicon and Cobalt, this last one as an ion as an element of Vitamin B.
