Intended for any healthcare professional working with surgical
patients, including medical students, residents, surgeons and
internists, nurses, dieticians, pharmacists, and physical
therapists, The Practical Handbook of Perioperative Metabolic and
Nutritional Care focuses on topics from the history of surgery and
metabolism, to organic response to stress. Based on clinical
processes, the author explores screening, assessment, and the
impact of nutritional status on outcomes, in addition to
investigating nutritional requirements, including macronutrients
and micronutrients. Chapters examine wound healing as well as
metabolic and nutritional surgical preconditioning, including
coverage of preoperative counseling, preoperative nutrition, and
preoperative fasting. Physical exercise is addressed, as well as
nutritional therapy in the form of oral supplements, and enteral
and parenteral approaches. Additional topics explored include
nutrition therapy complications and immunomodulatory nutrients,
pro, pre and symbiotics, postoperative oral, enteral and parenteral
nutrition, enteral access, vascular access, fluid therapy, and
more. With up-to-date information, practical and cost-effective
data, this resource is critical for translating theory to practice.
