Whole body protein kinetics during hypocaloric and normocaloric feeding in critically ill patients
INTRODUCTION Optimal feeding of critically ill patients in the ICU is controversial. Existing guidelines rest on rather weak evidence. Whole body protein kinetics may be an attractive technique for assessing optimal protein intake. In this study, critically ill patients were investigated during hypocaloric and normocaloric IV nutrition. METHODS Neurosurgical patients on mechanical ventilation...
متن کاملHigh-protein hypocaloric vs normocaloric enteral nutrition in critically ill patients: A randomized clinical trial.
PURPOSE Appropriate caloric intake in critically ill patients receiving enteral nutrition is controversial. This study evaluates the impact of different caloric regimens on severity of organ failure measured with Sequential Organ Failure Assessment (SOFA). MATERIALS AND METHODS We conducted a randomized prospective controlled trial. Study population included adult intensive care unit (ICU) pa...
متن کاملEffect of initiating enteral protein feeding on whole-body protein turnover in critically ill patients.
BACKGROUND Critically ill patients are susceptible to protein catabolism. Enteral feeding may ameliorate protein loss, but its effect is not well characterized in terms of protein kinetics. OBJECTIVE We established a method of quantifying the effect of enteral protein feeding on whole-body protein turnover and studied critically ill patients receiving early enteral nutrition. DESIGN In a pr...
متن کاملNutritional Assessment in Critically Ill Patients
Background: Malnutrition is an important factor in the survival of critically ill patients. The purpose of the present study was to assess the nutritional status of patients in the intensive care unit (ICU) on the days of admission and discharge via a detailed nutritional assessment. Methods: Totally, 125 patients were followed up from admission to discharge at 8ICUs in Shiraz, Iran. The patien...
متن کاملHypocaloric, high-protein nutrition therapy for critically ill patients with obesity.
We published the first article that addressed hypocaloric, high-protein enteral nutrition therapy for critically ill patients with obesity more than 10 years ago. This study demonstrated that it was possible to successfully achieve this mode of therapy with a commercially available high-protein enteral formula and concurrent use of protein supplements. This study was also the first to demonstra...
