Nutritional support
A technique where adequate nutrition is maintained despite some abnormal condition that may be interfering. This is most noticeable in cases involving the digestive tract, such as a perforated ulcer, when the patient is unable to ingest food normally. Food may be given parenterally (IV) or by bypassing the affected area with a tube. Blood cells need building blocks to grow and food provides those building blocks.
