Abstract:
The resting energy expenditure (REE) and the relative ratio of carbohydrate,fat and protein were investigated on the 1st to the 28th dqy postburn in 75 adult burn victims with burn area ranged between 5~98% TBSA.It was found that there was high catabolism of fat and protein but relatively low consumption of carbohydrate after burns.The more severe the burn injury,the more marked the above changes.On the basis of the metabolic characteristics of burn patients and on the traditional dietary habits of Chinese,a reasonable relative ratio among carbohydrate,fat and protein,the 3 main nutritional elements,in the diet of burn patients was suggested,viz,carbohydrate:fat:protein=55~60:20~30:15~20.
