                                According to the Cleveland Clinic, long-term parenteral nutrition-associated liver disease (PNALD) can affect up to 50% of patients after five to seven years. This statistic underscores why is TPN not good long-term and why healthcare providers prioritize transitioning to alternative nutritional methods whenever possible.
