TLDR
In malnourished or high nutrition risk patients, in whom EN is not feasible, PN should be started with 48 h of admission to the surgical ICU, and in patients with severe sepsis or septic shock, Pn and EN initiation should be delayed.Abstract:
Nutrition is an imperative component in the care of the surgical ICU patient. The benefit of either enteral nutrition (EN) or parenteral nutrition (PN) is greater in those patients determined to be malnourished or at high nutrition risk. Given the non-nutritional benefits, early EN (within 24–48 h of surgical ICU admission) is the preferred route of feeding. An immunonutrition EN formulation, used for the initial 7–10 days, may confer additional benefit in trauma and postoperative patients. In malnourished or high nutrition risk patients, in whom EN is not feasible, PN should be started with 48 h of admission to the surgical ICU. In patients with severe sepsis or septic shock, PN and EN initiation should be delayed.read more

TL;DR: It is increasingly observed that the majority of pharmaceutical drugs, even those believed to have minimal adverse effects, in fact adversely affect immune development and functions and are most likely also deleterious to microbiota.

TL;DR: The guidelines reiterate the importance of nutrition assessment-particularly, the detection of malnourished patients who are most vulnerable and therefore may benefit from timely intervention and there is a need for renewed focus on accurate estimation of energy needs and attention to optimizing protein intake.

TL;DR: A predictive equation for resting energy expenditure (REE) was derived from data from 498 healthy subjects, including females and males, aged 19-78 y, and overestimated measured REE by 5% (p less than 0.01).

TL;DR: Late initiation of parenteral nutrition was associated with faster recovery and fewer complications, as compared with early initiation.
