What you'll learn

Acute kidney injury is characterized by a rapid decrease in kidney function that is associated with changes in carbohydrate, fat, and protein metabolism. AKI rarely occurs as an isolated organ failure. read more »»

It mostly emerges as a component of multiple organ failure syndromes. Also, protein-energy wasting is a major negative prognostic factor. Nutritional support is frequently required, either parenteral or enteral. The primary goals of nutrition support are to ensure delivery of adequate nutrients, to prevent protein-energy wasting, to support immune system function, and to reduce mortality. While nutrition support is essential, one must be mindful of complications such as hyperglycemia, hypertriglyceridemia, fluid retention, electrolyte abnormalities. Learn all about this topic in much greater detail in this course designed by Medvarsity and Dosily.
