Summary

This study looked at whether giving nutrition through a small vein in the arm (peripheral parenteral nutrition) helps patients recover better after colorectal surgery. The trial included 200 adults who had surgery for conditions like colorectal cancer or inflammatory bowel disease. The goal was to see if this approach reduces stress from surgery, improves nutrition, and lowers complications compared to standard care.
