Nutritional support in the hypermetabolic patient

S Lehmann

    Critical Care Nursing Clinics of North America
    |March 1, 1993
    PubMed
    Summary

    Following major injury, patients require assessment for hypermetabolism and malnutrition. Metabolic supportive therapy, guided by understanding injury responses, aids organ integrity and improves recovery chances.

    Area of Science:

    • Physiology
    • Metabolic Medicine
    • Trauma Care

    Background:

    • Major injury triggers significant metabolic and physiological changes in patients.
    • Hypermetabolism and malnutrition are critical concerns following severe trauma.
    • Understanding these responses is key to effective patient management.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To outline the importance of assessing hypermetabolism and malnutrition post-injury.
    • To describe the principles of metabolic supportive therapy.
    • To highlight the impact of this therapy on patient recovery.

    Main Methods:

    • Assessment of metabolic and physiological status in trauma patients.
    • Application of principles derived from the body's response to injury.
    • Focus on maintaining organ system integrity through supportive therapy.

    Main Results:

    • Metabolic supportive therapy addresses structural and functional integrity of organs.
    • Therapy is based on understanding the body's complex response to trauma.
    • Effective application of supportive care significantly influences patient outcomes.

    Conclusions:

    • Careful assessment for hypermetabolism and malnutrition is essential for injured patients.
    • Metabolic supportive therapy is crucial for maintaining organ function.
    • Optimized supportive care enhances the likelihood of patient recovery.
