摘要:
The present invention provides a method for providing nutrition to elderly patients. Pursuant to the present invention, the enteral composition includes a protein source, a lipid source, and a carbohydrate source. Preferably, the protein source includes at least 18% of the total calories. In an embodiment, the carbohydrate source includes a source of dietary fiber including a balance of soluble to insoluble fiber ratio of approximately 1:3. Still further, the composition of the present invention also includes increased levels of certain vitamins and minerals.

The present invention provides a method and nutritional composition for providing nutrition to pediatric patients. The methods of the present invention are especially directed to pediatric patients recovering from moderate trauma, burns or surgery. Pursuant to the present invention, the enteral composition includes a rapidly emptying, low gastric reflux protein source comprising approximately 10% to 14% of the total calories, a carbohydrate source and a lipid source comprising a mixture of medium and long chain triglycerides, wherein at least 20% of the lipid source are medium chain triglycerides.
摘要:
A system and a method are provided for monitoring a patient. The system receives information relating to weight and/or LBM of a patient as well as other clinical and medical variable may be input relating to the patient. Warning levels or alert levels are input to the system such that a patient or clinician is immediately notified upon the patient reaching such levels. The system provides local transmission to a patient or remote transmission to, for example, a clinician of the patient or the like. The system and method are particularly useful for patients with chronic disease such that the dynamic nutritional status may be closely monitored and analyzed and ultimately addressed when significant changes occur.
