Protein Requirement Changes According to the Treatment Application in Neurocritical Patients

CONCLUSION: Our study revealed a total average protein requirement of 1.84 ± 0.62g during the treatment period, which falls within the upper range of the preexisting guidelines. Nevertheless, a notable deviation emerged when analyzing the treatment application period separately. Hence, it is recommended to incorporate considerations for the type and timing of treatment, extending beyond the current guideline, which solely accounts for the 'severity by disease.PMID:37984964 | DOI:10.3340/jkns.2023.0176
