Patient satisfaction „That tube went all the way to my stomach - and they put it in while I was conscious - nice! Made me feel better though ;-)”

Calory intake • How much?
Assessment • Harris-Benedict formula • Gender, age, weight, height • Compensation factor Long CL et al. JPEN 1979; 3: 452–6 • Ireton-Jones • Age, weight, gender, + burn + trauma Ireton-Jones CS, et al.J Burn Care Rehabil 1992;13:330–3 • Frankenfield • Minute ventilation, Hb, Sepsis Frankenfield DC, et al.

Assessment – shortcomings • Harris-Benedict, Ireton-Jones, Frankenfield, Fusco • EE increases: • Fever, shivering • Work of breathing • Pain, stress, physio, „realtives”, stb • Sepsis • Catecholamines • EE decreases: • Hypothermia • Sedation, anaesthesia • IPPV/CPAP • MOF McClave SA, et al. Nut Pract 1992; 9: 61-8 • Only the patient is missing
Measurements – shortcomings • Indirect calorimetry • Complicated, time consuming, expensive • Seal, FiO2<60%, „steady state” 60-120 minutes (!) • Snapshot only Browning JA, et al.

Atrophy and Impaired Muscle Protein Synthesis during Prolonged Inactivity and Stress Paddon-Jones D, et al. J Clin Endocrinol Metab. 2006 Dec;91(12):4836-41 1 Significant pre- to postbed rest change (P < 0.05). 2 Loss of lean muscle mass (dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry) from both legs.
The way I did it till 2009… • Supportive therapy • „Best standard care” • DO2/VO2 • Regular blood gases (arterial, central venous) • Tight blood sugar control 6-8 mmol/l • Early, controlled enteral nutrition • 30 ml/h: NG aspirate 3-4 hours later • 50-60 ml/h ~ 1500 kcal/day • Early tracheostomy • No sedation, active moving • Communication • „Agressive” weaning • Passive moving: avoids contractures • Muscle strength: active excercise
…the way I will carry on • Same, but… • Early EN +/- TPN • 30 ml/h: NG aspirate 3-4 h later • 50-60 ml/h ~ 1500 kcal/day • Blood sugar control • Target: 8-10 mmol/l (instead of 6-8 mmol/l) Finfer S, et al. N Engl J Med 2009; 360: 1283-97 • Every patient on TPN will get: • Trace elements + vitamins (1amp/day) • Glutamin
Summary • Chronic fasting ≠ critical illness muscle wasting • We treat patients differently now than 25 years ago • ICU is more comfortable for patients • Less often means more • 25-60% of calculated calory intake – not harmful, the opposite! • PRCTs are required • Active moving is invaluable
Motto Patients are always right: if they are not hungry I don’t feed them.
