                                While standard Total Parenteral Nutrition (TPN) formulations typically include lipids, certain clinical situations warrant the administration of fat-free TPN, though this must be managed carefully to avoid complications. The decision to remove lipids from a patient's TPN regimen is a complex clinical judgment based on the patient’s underlying condition and anticipated duration of treatment.
