30.3% versus peripheral venous catheter, 6.8%) as shown in
Figure 2.
Supplementation with multivitamin preparations, which lack
vitamin K, was prescribed in only 37% of patients on total
parenteral nutrition (TPN). The missing vitamin K was
substituted in only 6%, and trace elements in only 35% of cases
(Fig. 3). Interestingly, in patients with peripheral venous nutrition,
compliance with guidelines regarding micronutrients was
greater (39% multivitamin preparation and trace elements, 6.8%
vitamin K) and lower for central venous nutrition (27.3% multivitamin
preparation, 33.3% trace elements, and 3% vitamin K),
but the effect of application is not significant.
When the study populationwas divided into two groups with
a cutoff value of 18.5 kg/m2, a BMI of < 18.5 kg/m2 was associated
with a significant higher coverage of the energy supply than a
