PREPUBLICATION COPY: UNCORRECTED PROOFS The Perspective of a R.D. Working with Civilian Traumatic Brain Injury

چکیده
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) causes a very serious assault to the body, not only due to the primary or secondary injuries, but also by the effects it has on all of the body’s systems. Brain injury results in a significant increase in metabolism and catabolism that, if left unchecked, can lead to malnutrition. It has been shown that adequate nutrition support can attenuate these metabolic changes that result in muscle loss and therefore positively affect outcomes. This paper will review the current nutrition support standards of care in the moderate to severely brain-injured population, potential routes of nutrient administration, benefit of specific nutrients, and drugnutrient interactions of concern.
