[Dynamic metabolic monitoring as a basis of nutritional support in acute cerebral insufficiency of vascular genesis].

Abstract

Within the framework of a prospective controlled study, the metabolic status was evaluated in 148 patients with stroke, by using the dynamic metabolic monitoring technique comprising the calculation of real daily calorie consumption, the assessment of the degree of hypermetabolism, protein hypercatabolism, nutritional disorders, and needs for nutrients, and the daily evaluation of nutritional support. As a result, the authors provide evidence that dynamic metabolic monitoring rapidly and adequately reflect changes in the degree of hypercatabolism and hypermetabolism in patients with lesions of the central nervous system and the structures responsible for regulation of metabolism and nutritional support in accordance with monitoring data makes it possible to enhance the efficiency of intensive care and to reduce the frequency of neurotrophic complications.
