Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Taurolidine alone or in combination with citrate have been proposed for locking the catheter to reduce the number of catheter infections. As there is not enough evidence to give recommendations in this regard, the study tested the hipothesis that taurolidine improves the outcome of long term paretneral nutrition.
