No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Prospective observational follow-up of Intensive Care Unit (ICU) survivors on the adequacy of nutritional therapy: what is the mean caloric and nitrogen intake and how does their metabolic profile evolve over time? Is supplemental nutrition, in any forms, indicated to fill the caloric and protein gap? Would IV access be a barrier for SPN, and would subcutaneous parenteral nutrition be welcomed by health care practitioners and patients? Are patient centered outcomes (physical function, quality of life, performance in activities of daily living) correlated with nutritional adequacy and metabolic profile? Overall: are ICU survivors well fed after they leave ICU until hospital discharge? What kind of nutrition would possibly be useful to optimize the intake? How do their energy and protein requirements evolve? What is the physical and mental status of ICU survivors and is this correlated with nutritional status?
