3 goals of nutritional therapy in critical illness
|
- Prevent (further tissue degeneration)
- Promote (healing) - Provide (support for anabolism) |
|
4 phases of metabolic response to injury/illness
|
- Ebb phase
- Flow phase - Anabolic recovery phase - Multiple organ failure |
|
4 characteristics of ebb phase
|
- Decreased BP
- Decreased CO - Lower temperature - Decreased O2 consumption |
|
4 characteristics of flow phase
|
- Hypercatabolism
- Negative N balance - Increased urinary loss of S, P, Mg - Increased O2 consumption |
|
Which phase is called the hypermetabolic phase?
|
Flow
|
|
Which phase is called the hypometabolic phase?
|
Ebb
|
|
What is the general goal of the flow phase?
|
Mobilize body resources to counteract ebb phase
|
|
What happens during ebb phase?
|
Initial responses to severe body insult (24 - 48 hours)
|
|
3 characteristics of Anabolic recovery phase
|
- Positive fluid balance re-established
- Positive nitrogen balance regained - Strength returns |
|
Which phase is the conversion from catabolism to anabolism?
|
Anabolic recovery phase
|
|
5 characteristics of Multiple Organ Failure stage
|
- Pulmonary failure
- Hepatic failure - Renal failure - Metabolic and respiratory acidosis - Septicemia |
|
4 things that can lead to multiple organ failure stage
|
- Septicemia
- Malnutrition - Immunocompromise - Hypoperfusion |
|
Which starvation type has no catabolism?
|
Unstressed (uncomplicated)
|
|
Which starvation type has decreased RER activity?
|
Unstressed (uncomplicated)
- Stressed (hypermetabolic) is the opposite |
|
Which starvation type has increased gluconeogenesis?
|
Stressed (Hypermetabolic)
|
|
Which starvation type has an increase rate of malnutrition
|
Stressed (Hypermetabolic)
|
|
3 indices most useful in clinical assessment of nutritional status
|
- Physical exam
- Laboratory tests - BCS |
|
7 steps in providing nutritional support to a hospitalized patient
|
- Assess nutritional status
- Estimate fuel source caloric needs - Select route of administration - Select appropriate diet - Plan and initiate program - Evaluate patient response (modify as needed) - Plan transitions |
|
Target amount of CNH in a hospitalized patient
|
24 - 48%
|
|
Target amount of COH in a hospitalized patient
|
10 - 25%
|
|
Target amount of fat in a hospitalized patient
|
30 - 50%
|
|
Two ways of calculating RER
|
RER = 70 * (BWkg)^0.75
RER = 30*BWkg + 70 |
|
2 types of parenteral nutrition
|
- TPN
- PPN |
|
Which parenteral nutrition provides all nutritional needs for 24 hours?
|
TPN
|
|
Which parenteral nutrition provides half nutrition needs for 24 hours?
|
PPN
|
|
Which parenteral type is used in smaller hospitals?
|
PPN
|
|
Osmolarities of the two parenteral nutrition types
|
TPN: > 1,200 mOsm/L
PPN: < 800 mOsm/L |
|
Which parenteral nutrition type is safest to use?
|
PPN
|
