Abstract

In a cross-sectional, retrospective study of 604 cases, variations among three Norwegian hospitals in use of perioperative parenteral nutrition (TPN) after gastrointestinal surgery was determined. Postoperative TPN rates were 25%, 34% (p = .05) and 56% (p < .0001), respectively. However, a substantial part of the variation was explained by differences in patient characteristics.
