Question

which of the following types of therapy should be given to a patient who cannot process food through digestion?
antibiotic
total parenteral nutrition
hydration
chemotherapy

Explanation:

Antibiotics treat bacterial infections, not digestion - related nutritional needs. Hydration provides fluids, not nutrients. Chemotherapy treats cancer. Total parenteral nutrition (TPN) delivers nutrients directly into the bloodstream, bypassing the digestive system, so it's used for patients who can't process food via digestion.

Answer:

B. Total parenteral nutrition
