Abstract

This article interprets the "Expert consensus on the management of neonatal parenteral nutrition (2025)", focusing on precise control of parenteral nutrition fluid volume, key considerations for the stability of compounded nutrient solutions, scientific determination of amino acid dosing, and rational recommendations for intravenous lipid emulsion. The aim is to offer authoritative and clear guidance for frontline clinicians, and facilitate the widespread dissemination and effective implementation of the consensus, thereby strengthening the standardization of neonatal parenteral nutrition management and improving short- and long-term outcomes in neonates.

Key words

Parenteral nutrition / Amino acid / Lipid emulsion / Expert consensus / Neonate
