                                According to research on transition strategies, some clinicians consider a patient ready for full enteral feeding when tolerating 60-75% of their prescribed caloric needs. Deciding when can parenteral nutrition be stopped requires careful, multidisciplinary evaluation to ensure a safe transition to oral or enteral feeding.
