Why sterile water for injection is used in an RPT?
To switch from a peripheral RPT RPT center dextrose to dilute to the desired concentration to increase the volume of the laminar flow To sterilize the solution through a 0.22 micron filter
TPN is a mixture of proteins, lipids (fats) and carbohydrates (glucose) more electrolytes (NaCl, KCl, KPO4, Mg, P, Ca and more). All this is highly concentrated and may damage veins during infusion due to high osmolality. Water is added to dilute the "Ingredients" and also to supply water to the patient to do not become dehydrated and receiving drinking water.
