Main messages

• Acute phase modifies energy expenditure and

substrate utilization

• Anabolic resistance and protein breakdown

are leading to significant muscle loss

• Persistent Inflammation-Immunosuppression

Catabolism Syndrome (PICS) is secondary to

significant nutritional changes

Conclusions

• In the acute phase:

– Energy expenditure is increased in a moderate way

– mobilization of substrates to provide glucose,

– obligatory lipolysis,

– Obligatory proteolysis.

• In the stabilized phase, body composition should

be preserved and nutritional support can be

adapted to the patie t’s eeds to preve t fro PICS.
