Nutrition is important: but as we discussed way back in PicPod 13, nutrition should be at the right time, at the right amount.
Luise Marino is the senior dietician at the PIC in Southampton. She gave an excellent talk at the 2020 E-PCCS conference on refeeding syndrome. Children admitted to PIC have varying levels of malnutrition. How do we react to this? How should we feed these patients?
Should we give trophic feeds? Should we give micronutrients? Pre or post pyloric feeding? What amount?
Discussion about and around these topics.
More to come from the E-PCCS conference soon.
