[Experience of using nutrition therapy in children with multiple and combined trauma in intensive care units].
Caloric and nutrient requirements significantly increase in a pediatric patient with severe injury. This is attributable to catabolism and metabolic features in children cause postoperative complications, increases mortality rates in pediatric surgical patients. This generates the need for early administration of diet therapy using specialized formulas that correct nutrient deficiency. Therefore, the aim of our study was to evaluate the effect of enteral feeding in the early postoperative period: early enteral feeding caused a more rapid increase in the concentrations of transferin and albumin, decreases in C-reactive protein and orosomucoid, and a reduction in the number of the patients who were on early enteral nutrition versus those on a routine postsurgical diet.
