Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? The What, Why and When of Permissive Underfeeding Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, CNSD Nutrition Support Team Mt. Carmel West Hospital Mt. Carmel West 500 bed academic center Non-physician based NST • Dietitian, pharmacist and nurse What to Expect Review rationale for underfeeding Discuss research with parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition • • • Not always mutually exclusive In critically ill population Include obese population Offer recommendations for practice Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Caloric Intake Quandary ??? •Minimize loss •Promote clinical improvement •Overfeeding and its associated complications •Positive outcomes Paradigm Shift A change in basic assumptions within the ruling theory of science History of Energy Intake Early PN Regimens • • 175% to 200% of BEE VA Cooperative Trial – 46 kcals/kg Energy Requirements • Long, et al. • Activity/injury factors • High estimation of requirements • Kcals/kg • 35 – 45 kcals/kg • Obese patients using actual weight Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Adverse Effects? Ventilatory complications reported • • Case reports Askanazi, et al. 1981 • Increased work of breathing, ventilator weaning failure VA Cooperative Trial • Increased infectious complications seen in those with mild or moderate malnutrition Relationship to energy intake and/or substrate? Rationale for Underfeeding Based upon “hormesis” concept (Zaloga-1994) • • • “Less is more” theory Beneficial effect of low dose vs toxic effect of high dose In setting of inflammation • cytokine release, • oxidant production • damage Critical Illness – Metabolic Response Flow phase - catabolism • Increased counter-regulatory hormones • Favors catabolic processes • Increased gluconeogenesis • General duration of 3-10 days Flow phase – anabolism • • Decreased glucagon, epi and norepi Increased growth hormone, IGF • Favors anabolic processes • Duration of 10 to 60 days Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Catabolic Phase Ability to tolerate traditional nutrient regimens? Can endogenous glucose production be suppressed? Hyperglycemia common Potential Benefits Reduced nutrient oxidation Reduced free radical and cytokine production Reduced DNA damage Reduced metabolic demands • Potential for reduced CO2 production • Potential Benefits Energy/carbohydrate restriction Lower n-6 fatty acids • • Reduced hyperglycemia Reduced substrate for pro-inflammatory mediator synthesis Decreased Ca, Fe, Zn levels • May decrease inflammatory response and cell injury Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Animal Models for Underfeeding Alexander, Ann Surg 1989 • Animals with peritonitis • Kcal range – 100 to 15 per kg • Increased infections in higher calorie group • Increased survival when provided fewer calories • 100% mortality in high group vs 43% in low group Berg and Simms, J Nutr 1990 Peck, JPEN 1992 • • Rats with restricted diets lived 20% longer Significantly improved mortality in mice fed 50% normal caloric intake Underfeeding in Parenteral Nutrition Patino, World J Surg 1999 • Retrospective of 107 ICU patients Grouped by use of PN (early versus late) 22-24 kcals/kg day (IBW) Lack of statistical analysis Nitrogen balance • Glucose levels • • • • • -8.5 and -9.7 • 122 mg/dl and 135 mg/dl Concluded results much improved from earlier hypercaloric regimens Underfeeding in Parenteral Nutrition McGowan, CCM 2000 • • PRCT in acute care hospital Compared a hypocaloric and eucaloric regimen • 1000 kcals/day or 20-25 kcals/kg/day • Protein provided at 1.5 g/kg/day • Initiated less than total dextrose goal • Nutrient intake • No difference in glucose levels or infections Nitrogen balance more negative in hypocaloric group Concluded that hypocaloric PN regimen not superior • 913 ± 90 vs 1192 ± 212 kcals/day • • Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Enteral Nutrition and Underfeeding Krishnan, Chest 2003 • • Prospective trial in ICU patients (n=187) Compared energy intakes with AACP guidelines • 25 kcals/kg/day • • Divided energy intakes into tertiles Average intake 50.6% of the ACCP • Tertile II with ↑ likelihood of discharge alive compared to I or III • Criticism of PN use in up to 39% of patients Enteral Nutrition and Underfeeding Ibrahim, JPEN 2002 • • PRCT with ICU patients Compared early versus late feeding group • 100% estimated EE on Day 1 versus Day 5 • Late group to receive 20% of EEE Days 1-4 • Total caloric intake = 2370 ± 2000 kcals/day versus 629 ± 575 kcals (p<0.001) • Increased ICU LOS (p=0.02), VAP (p=0.04) and antibiotic therapy (p=0.001) in the early group • Conclusions and caveats • No difference in mortality Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Enteral Nutrition and Underfeeding Ash, JPEN 2005 (abstract) • Retrospective review of trauma patients (n=128) • Evaluated caloric intakes in quartiles • Highest hospital LOS in Quartile IV • Non-obese • Kcals/kg/day Enteral Nutrition and Underfeeding Hise, JADA 2007 • • Prospective evaluation in MICU and SICU Mean percent of goal energy intake per ICU day calculated • Energy intake from all sources • Higher ICU LOS with >82% of goal intake SICU population of >67% of goal intake • Conclusions • • Higher ICU and hospital LOS • Limit energy intake to 80% or less in severe critical illness Rationale for Underfeeding in Obesity Obese associated with metabolic changes • Insulin resistance • Obstructive sleep apnea Fatty infiltration • Hyperglycemia • Provide nutrients without exacerbating metabolic issues Protect lean body mass Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Obese Patient Dickerson, AJCN 1986 • • • Pilot study (n=14) Prospective evaluation with PN Received 51% of non-protein kcals • 2.1 g/protein/kg • • • Weight loss occurred Nitrogen balance +2.4±1.9 g/day Wounds and fistulas healed Obese Patient Burge, JPEN 1994 • Prospective trial in acutely ill patients (n=16) Randomized to receive 50% or 100% nonprotein kcals • Nitrogen balance • • 2 g protein/kg • 1.3 ± 3.62 hypocaloric group • 2.8 ± 6.9 control group • Conclusion – hypocaloric PN can result in a comparable nitrogen balance Obese Patient Choban, 1997 AJCN • • • • Prospective evaluation in acute/critically ill patients (n=30) 22 kcals/kg IBW – hypocalorie 36 kcals/kg IBW – control No difference in weight change or nitrogen balance • ICU patients with no difference • • Trend toward lower glucose levels in hypocaloric group Conclusion Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why? Obese Patients Dickerson, Nutrition 2002 • Retrospective evaluation in critically ill patients (n=40) • Hypocaloric = < 20 kcals/kg adj BW • Eucaloric = ≥ 20 kcals/kg adj BW • Actual energy intake - Average at week 4 • 22 kcals/kg/IBW – hypocaloric • 29 kcals/kg/IBW - eucaloric • No significant differences in nitrogen balance Obese Patient Dickerson, Nutrition 2002 • Clinical outcomes • Decreased ICU stay (p=0.03) • Decreased antibiotic therapy (p=0.03) • No difference in glucose levels • May be related to EN versus PN • Conclusion • Hypocaloric EN feeding approach at least AS favorable is eucloric feeding • May provide a clinical benefit Obese Patient Choban and Dickerson, NCP 2005 • • • Combined data sets Evaluated morbidly obese (Class III = BMI ≥ 40) N = 70 • 44 provided hypocaloric regimen • 26 provided eucaloric regimen • Via regression determined higher protein intake is needed • Trend toward worsening hyperglycemia in Class III compared to less obese • 1.9 - 2.5 g/kg/IBW in critically ill patients Oklahoma Dietetic Association Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSD April, 16, 2008 Permissive Underfeeding: What, Where and Why?
