Nutritional interventions in severe burns in children - therapeutic results
1Department of Paediatrics, Gastroenterology and Nutrition.
Abstract:
This paper, which supplements the theoretical articles already published in Annals of Burns and Fire Disasters (vol. XVIII, pp. 117-21, 2005), presents the therapeutic results achieved in 37 extremely burned paediatric patients. The clinical analysis included nutritional protocols and methods of monitoring treatment effectiveness. The necessity of introducing nutritional intervention immediately after initiation of severe burns treatment is unquestionable, the aim being to decrease catabolism in the initial period of the burn disease followed by the achievement of the appropriate metabolic determinants of wound healing.
