Answer to Question 1

PPN is used most often in patients who require short-term nutrition support (less than 2 weeks) and who do not have high nutrient needs or fluid restrictions. The use of PPN is not possible if the peripheral veins are too weak to tolerate the procedure. In many cases, clinicians must rotate venous access sites to avoid damaging veins.

Answer to Question 2

True
