Patients on home TPN benefit greatly from the services provided by a home nutrition
therapy
team. Three months’ worth of supplies may be too much and might end up being
wasteful.
Assessing the patient’s psychological response to therapy is important, but not as
important as
ensuring the patient has a nutrition team for support. Family members may or may not
be
willing to help, but the patient may not need their assistance.

Some indications for parenteral nutrition (PN) include abdominal trauma, severe
pancreatitis,
and severe malabsorption. Parenteral nutrition is not used for short-term support (less
than 14
, days). Nurses should collaborate with the patient, family, and interdisciplinary team to
promote the patient’s appetite and eating before turning to PN.

MULTIPLE CHOICE
1. The nurse teaches the patient progressive self-relaxation techniques. Which would the
nurse
implement first?
a. Direct the patient to envision sailing on a sailboat.
b. Instruct the patient to increase respiratory rate and depth.
c. Establish the patient’s ability to participate and cooperate.
d. Darken the patient’s room significantly and close the door.

The nurse begins by assessing the patient’s ability to participate and cooperate to tailor
the
teaching techniques and vocabulary to him or her. This increases the likelihood of the
patient
benefiting from the instruction. Envisioning pleasant things is part of teaching guided
imagery
but is not the initial step. After assessing the patient, the nurse provides a brief overview
of the
technique and sets a proper learning environment. Deep respirations are an indication
of
relaxation; however, instructing a patient to take deep breaths would not precede
assessing the
patient’s ability to cooperate.
