Abstract:
The results are presented of the mathematical program "Artificial Feeding" that has been developed for the evaluation of the nutrition status and effectiveness of parenteral and enteral tube nutrition. On the basis of the combination of anthropometric, biochemical and immunological parameters the program makes possible a dynamic follow-up of the patient's nutrition status, calculation of nitrogen, electrolyte and water balances, and determination of the requirements in energy and protein preparations for artificial feeding.
