What is especially required during parenteral nutrition?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Medical supervision and monitoring
Parenteral nutrition delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream and bypasses the gastrointestinal tract. Because it involves intravenous access and carefully calculated fluids, glucose, electrolytes, amino acids, lipids, and other nutrients, it requires qualified medical supervision and regular monitoring for infection, metabolic imbalance, and catheter-related complications. Hence, option D is correct.
