What does the evidence show about how nutrition care for adults with major burns has evolved over the decades, including energy/protein targets, nutrition delivery routes, macro- and micronutrient management, and monitoring practices in ICU and acute burn settings?
Abstract
The evidence suggests that nutrition care for adults with major burns has evolved to include high energy and protein targets, with a combination of enteral and supplemental parenteral nutrition when necessary. Tailored macro- and micronutrient management, along with comprehensive monitoring practices, are emphasized to optimize patient outcomes in ICU and acute burn settings.
