Please note the news about calcium and phos for TPNs below. Please remove phos from TPNs whenever possible and provide replacement via PO/tube route. DAVID

Hey David, can you send info to staff?

Good News: Calcium can go back into adult TPNs.

Bad News: Sodium phosphate is on backorder again. Can you remind staff to convert to po when possible? We do have about 1 month supply of vials on hand and will probably be forced to remove from adult TPNs next week. Potassium phosphate is available right now, but not in great supply either.
