Abstract

Lipids are a component of artificial nutrition. For 20 years lipids covered only a limited percentage of the energy requirement of the patient, depending on parenteral nutrition. Ideas about dose, type and aims of lipids administration in artificial nutrition have changed during this period. The study is based on the discussion around lipids in artificial nutrition.
