Assessing Nutritional Needs
Energy or calorie requirements Protein requirements Micronutrient requirements
![Page 3: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
Energy Requirements May be up to 50% more calories than the
non-stressed individual Calculate using Harris Benedict formula,
Mifflin St Jeor, or indirect calorimetry
![Page 4: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Protein Requirement Increased relative to increased demands for
protein synthesis and increased losses of amino acids
Needs Stage 1-- 1.0 gram/kg Stage 2--1-1.2 grams/kg Stage 3--1.25-1.5 grams/kg Stage 4--1.5-2.0 grams/kg
Note: Protein above 1.5 gm/kg may not help protein syntheses and may cause dehydration, particularly in the elderly or those with impaired renal function
![Page 5: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Micronutrient Requirements Increased need for cellular function and
formation
![Page 6: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Interventions to Promote Healing Provide optimum nutrition early
adequate energy and nutrient profile adequate protein necessary micronutrients
Use anabolic agents, if necessary Provide exercise stimulus to muscles, to
increase anabolism
![Page 7: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Basic Principles--CHO 55-60% of diet Provide as complex CHO
glucose is the prime energy source for the cell Leukocytes apparently use glucose to
promote phagocytic activity of lymphocytes prior to fibroplasia
Maximum tolerated is 7-8 grams/kg/d for respiratory patients
Give insulin for glucose >250 mg/dL and decrease intake if severe hyperglycemia
![Page 8: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Basic Principles--Protein 20-25% of diet from protein Increased protein intake decreases the net
nitrogen losses by increasing the amino acid flow into the protein synthesis channel
Essential for protein synthesis and new cell growth
Protein is the component of collagen and other structural components
![Page 9: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Basic Principles--Protein Will need increased fluids Higher risk for dehydration BUN will probably increase
NOTE: Excessive protein does NOT encourage faster healing as the body does not store protein but turn it into sugars
![Page 10: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Basic Principles--Fat 20-25% of the diet No more than 2 grams/kg/day Need to monitor triglycerides
keep triglycerides < 250 mg/dL
![Page 11: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Fatty Acids/Omega 3 Synthesize prostanoids Normal cell membrane function Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency (EFAD) impairs
wound healing Often overlooked by RD
Can obtain in foods and oils salmon, mackerel, albacore tuna, sardines, flax canola and soybean oil
![Page 12: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Vitamin A
Normal inflammatory response Allows epithelization, collagen synthesis, and
collagen cross-linking Maintains normal humoral defense
mechanism Seems to limit complications Need a good source (DAILY) in wound
healing
![Page 13: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Vitamin A Supplements given:
to counteract catabolic effects of glucocorticoids
to corticosteroid dependent patients to promote healing
to those with poor nutrient stores or malabsorption
Note: Too much may exacerbate inflammatory response
![Page 14: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Vitamin C
works with Amino Acids proline and lysine during collagen synthesis
needed for carnitine production for fatty acid metabolism
Reduces risk of wound reopening Body does not store vitamin C
![Page 15: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Vitamin C deficiency--Scurvy
Symptoms may develop rapidly but reverse quickly with treatment
Interferes with fibroblast function Alters healing process of collagen synthesis No secretion of procollagen chains Impaired polymerization Wrong amino acid sequence Increased blood cell fragility
![Page 16: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Thiamine
necessary for oxidation, reduction reactions helps form lysyl oxidase to strengthen collagen necessary for adequate collagen formation
Vitamin K Responsible for normal coagulation of blood Prolonged bleeding times and hematoma formation
may hinder wound healing
![Page 17: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)

Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Zinc
Role in cellular proliferation and protein synthesis
Excess zinc may interfere with wound healing via affecting lysyl oxidase, an enzyme involved in collagen synthesis
Excess interferes with copper and iron absorption and metabolism
![Page 19: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Zinc--cont.
Needed for ALL enzymatic reactions Urinary losses increase with stress and weight
loss Body stores are often depleted in patients
with malnutrition, chronic diarrhea and chronic corticosteroid use
![Page 20: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Basic Principles--Micronutrient Support Zinc cont.
In deficiency state, may find low rate of epithelialization
Deficiency causes decreased wound and collagen strength
Supplementation often done in wound management but no evidenced based studies to prove its need

Basic Principles--Water Participates in most metabolic reactions Acts as a solvent for minerals, vitamins,
amino acids, glucose, and other small molecules enabling them to diffuse in and out of cells
Transports vital materials to cells and waste away from cells
![Page 31: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Intervention Strategies Nonpharmacologic strategies
Counseling and education Patients should be told about and become involved
in decisions as should the families Optimizing food intake
Start with foods rather than supplements Calorie enhanced/protein enhance
Supplements Immune enhanced formulas 2 Kcal Med pass

Calorie Needs in Wound Healing 30 kcal/kg body weight generally accepted >30 kcal/kg should promote positive
nitrogen balance Use indirect calorimetry if available and if
accuracy is critical Liberalize diet!!!!
![Page 34: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Vitamin & Minerals Implicated in wound healing Remember, they do not hasten healing
once normal stores are present No question that information is conflicting
and confusing but with a litigation culture, we have become a supplement oriented society
![Page 35: Skin, Wounds, and Nutrition Part 4](https://reader031.fdocuments.us/reader031/viewer/2022021815/5873cce71a28ab9d168b5777/html5/thumbnails/35.jpg)
Indication for Nutrition Support May facilitate wound healing Ability to optimize nutrient intake Must be monitored Must be in accordance with Advanced
Directives
