Abstract:
The nutritional requirements of neonates with congenital abdominal wall defects (AWDs) remain poorly described. In particular, there is a lack of literature on the calorie, protein, and micronutrient needs of those with AWD. Nutritional therapy is a cornerstone of care in patients with burns due to the metabolic consequences of injury to the epithelial layer. Similarly, children with AWD may require specialized nutritional plans to support their growth and wound healing. This case series supports the theory that patients with ruptured omphaloceles may require higher calorie, protein, and micronutrient provisions in comparison to patients with intact omphaloceles, due to increased metabolic demand to support wound healing and skin epithelialization.
摘要:
先天性腹壁缺损(AWD)新生儿的营养需求仍未得到充分描述。特别是,缺乏关于卡路里的文献,蛋白质,以及AWD患者的微量营养素需求。由于上皮层损伤的代谢后果,营养治疗是烧伤患者护理的基石。同样,患有AWD的儿童可能需要专门的营养计划来支持他们的成长和伤口愈合。这个案例系列支持了这样的理论,即脐眼破裂的患者可能需要更高的卡路里,蛋白质,和微量营养素的供应相比,完整的脐眼患者,由于增加的代谢需求,以支持伤口愈合和皮肤上皮化。
