title: [Kinetic study during amino acid infusion in catabolic patients. Comparison between two solutions].
abstract: The equilibrium kinetic of two different amino acid solutions was investigated in ten catabolic patients (Parentamin, Pierrel; HBC, Baxter). Plasma amino acid pattern was determined on arterial samples before TPN and several times over 48 hours of TPN. Nitrogen balance was measured from 24 hours urine collection. Three different cinetic trends were found: a fast modification (diminution or increase), a slow adaptation, or no modification of plasmatic levels, however each amino acid reached a steady state plateau. The adequacy of the infusion of each amino acid was evaluated comparing its steady-state plasma level to the after lunch level in healthy man. This made possible to approximate metabolic needs of each of the infused amino acids and to identify the inadequacy of some metabolic pathways to synthetized non essential amino acids lacking in solutions. This made possible to identify amino acids infused in excess or in defect, and those infused in dose adapt to the metabolic needs of such patients.
