Abstract

OBJECTIVE: To obtain accurate values for the components of energy expenditure in critically ill patients with sepsis or trauma during the first 2 wks after admission to the intensive care unit. DESIGN: Prospective study. SETTING: Critical care unit and university department of surgery in a single tertiary care center. PATIENTS: Twelve severely septic (median Acute Physiology and Chronic Health Evaluation II Score, 23; range, 15 to 34) and 12 major trauma patients (median Injury Severity Score, 33.5; range, 26 to 50). INTERVENTIONS: Total body fat, total body protein, and total body glycogen were measured as soon as hemodynamic stability had been reached and repeated 5 and 10 days later. Resting energy expenditure (REE) was measured daily by indirect calorimetry. MEASUREMENTS AND MAIN RESULTS: Changes in total body fat, total body protein, and total body glycogen in critically ill patients provide data for the accurate construction of an energy balance. Energy intake minus energy balance gives a direct measurement of total energy expenditure (TEE) and, when combined with measurements of REE, activity energy expenditure can be obtained. TEE, REE, and activity energy expenditure were calculated for two sequential 5-day study periods. REE progressively increased during the first week after the onset of severe sepsis or major trauma, peaking during the second week at 37 +/- 6% (SEM) and 60 +/- 13% greater than predicted, respectively. For both the sepsis and trauma patients, TEE was significantly higher during the second week than during the first week (3257 +/- 370 vs. 1927 +/- 370 kcal/day, p < .05, in sepsis; 4123 +/- 518 vs. 2380 +/- 422 kcal/day, p < .05, in trauma). During the first week after admission to the hospital, TEE in sepsis and trauma patients, respectively, averaged 25 +/- 5 and 31 +/- 6 kcal/kg of body weight/day, and during the second week, 47 +/- 6 and 59 +/- 7 kcal/kg/day (p < .03, for comparison of first and second weeks). For the first week, the ratio of TEE to REE was 1.0 +/- 0.2 and 1.1 +/- 0.2 but during the second week rose to 1.7 +/- 0.2 and 1.8 +/- 0.2 in patients with sepsis (p < .05, for comparison of weeks) and trauma (p = .09), respectively. CONCLUSIONS: Total energy expenditure is maximal during the second week after admission to the critical care unit, reaching 50 to 60 kcal/kg/day.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
