Supplementary parenteral nutrition (h-spn) with higher energy intake decreased postoperative hospital stays and infectious complications among gastric cancer patients. In a study of 128 patients, the h-spn group had an average stay of 8.11 days compared to 10.38 days for the l-spn group and significantly fewer infections, particularly pulmonary. Furthermore, there were no added costs or complications associated with h-spn, indicating it as an effective nutritional support strategy after surgery.
