title: [The role of nutrition on the treatment of septic syndrome and multiple organ failure].
abstract: Basing on current literature the issues regarding nutrition in patients with septic syndrome and multiple organ failure were discussed. It was emphasised that patient feeding along with providing metabolic substrates also serves as a treatment method. Diet ingredients in specific carbohydrate, protein and fat metabolism disorders were analysed. We focused upon the role of emulsion of fat, especially medium chain triglycerides (MCT) and -3-linolenic acid (fish oil). The unique role o f glutamine, arginine and branched chain amino acids (BCA) was highlighted. Patient nutrition with accordance to the presented new methods has become an efficient routine of treatment in septic syndrome. It may constitute an efficient prophylaxis against multiple organ failure.
