That's Correct!
It's Wrong!
The administration set used for the infusion of TPN solutions should be changed every 24 hours. This is necessary to prevent the growth of bacteria and ensure the safety and effectiveness of the TPN solution. Over time, the administration set can become contaminated, leading to potential infection in the patient. Therefore, changing the administration set regularly helps maintain the integrity of the TPN solution and reduces the risk of complications.
