    AbstractParenteral nutrition (PN) is a therapy to nourish patients who cannot tolerate feeding via the gut. Though a life-saving intervention, it does have risks associated. In this article, we aim to dispel myths associated with PN. Practitioners who manage critically ill patients or patients with intestinal failure should be equipped with evidence-based knowledge of PN including the indications, contraindications, feasibility, complications, and long-term management of PN.Copyright © 2022 Elsevier Inc.
