title: [Relation between energy intake and expenditure in Chinese burn adults].
abstract: In order to understand the relation of energy intake and expenditure after burn, calorie intake and resting energy expenditure of 75 burn adults with 5-98% TBSA (Total Body Surface Area) were investigated from PBD1 (Postburn Day) to PBD28. Results were as follows, 1. Burn adults with < 30% TBSA could acquire enough calorie by oral intake only, it was not necessary for them to receive special nutritional treatment; 2. Patients with 30-50% TBSA should be given extra calorie supplement during PBD1-14, because they could not get sufficient energy by oral intake only during this period; 3. It was very necessary to give patients with 50% TBSA, especially > 70% TBSA active calorie supplement, because the calorie taken by oral route during PBD1-PBD28 was not enough to satisfy the need of burn metabolism.
