    Kompan, Lidija
    Malnutrition presents a major problem in several patients treated in intensivecare unit (ICU). Extreme body reserve exhaustion influence s morbidity and mortality and prolongs hospital stay. ... Therefore nutrition of thecritically ill isn't only support, but preferential mode of treatment. In seventies of the last century hyperalimentation was recommended for such patients. Nevertheless, it turned out to be wrong, as metabolic support does not stop the catabolism. Principles of modern nutritional support in ICU are: start nutrition as soon as possible following admission to ICU, enteral nutrition is the prefered access. In practice give 20 to 35 kcal/kg/day in 40 to 50 percent carbohydrate and lipid mixture, glucose < 5 g/kg/day, lipid 0.5 do 1.5 g/kg/day, protein between 1.2 in 1.5 g/kg/day. Maintenance of normoglycemia is of upmost importance.
