Abstract
This research workshop in 2009 grew out of a concern in the United States, Europe, and other countries with advanced medicine that it was time to revisit the parenteral requirements for a number of micronutrients. Critical questions sought to be answered included the following: Were there micronutrients not routinely added that should be part of a parenteral nutrition (PN) formula? Were other micronutrients present but in inappropriate amounts? How are various micronutrient requirements altered in the critically or chronically ill?
