Our legacy of proven partnership with healthcare professionals and our continued commitment to scientific advancement continues. This year we would like to extend an invite to the Nutricia Satellite Symposium hosted at this year’s ISICEM Congress (International Society Intensive Care and Emergency Medicine) 22 - 25 March.
On Friday 25th March 2022, join us over lunch in the 400 Hall to discuss the latest clinical research addressing the protein requirements of ICU patients, linked to clinical and functional outcomes.
Why do we believe that the nutrition support practices are so important to not only ICU patients, but ALL patients?
To optimize the nutrition support provided to critically ill and recovering patients, we need to better understand the role of protein and whether the trends seen in observational studies can be replicated in clinical trials.
Join us to discover and debate this topic in Brussels.
Join Nutricia’s Satellite Symposium: Protein requirements in ICU patients : new clinical trials addressing some unknowns. Renowned speakers are happy to present program below. You’re invited 25 March, 400 Hall, 12:30-13:30pm.
Hear key ICU specialists highlight the relevance of nutrition in ICU, but also into recovery. Watch the video ‘Highlights from our Covid-19 webinar series’ and learn more on the clinical practice experience of the nutritional management of Covid-19 patients in ICU and post ICU discharge.
Prof van Zanten gives insights into the challenges of meeting patients’ nutritional requirements with available products. He discusses the different options of meeting high protein targets without overfeeding energy. The audience asks key clinical questions on the preferred type of protein, protein targets and other best practices. Watch the video here.
Nutritional needs from ICU to recovery, what does evidence and practice tell us now? Prof Wischmeyer highlights how patients in the ICU are more difficult to feed than ever, with increasing complications. It is therefore imperative that a personalized approach is taken and that nutrition is adjusted accordingly by right dose, for the right patient at the right time. There is no one size fits all approach. He outlines that this needs to be extended beyond the ICU stay and that based on LEEP COVID data, showing increased metabolic needs, that patients will require ongoing nutrition support even beyond hospital discharge. Watch the video here.
Covid-19 caught the world unaware, and critical care was particularly hard hit, but were we prepared for the long recovery time of our patients? Inadequate nutrition support practices that already existed, were made more pronounced in the wake of the pandemic. Let us learn how we can better manage our patients and their longer term nutritional needs.
