Brief Summary:
This study is designed to determine if the following are true When protein requirements exceed metabolic requirements blood urea nitrogenBUN levels will rise Elevated BUN levels in the absence of renal failure hepatic failure or GI bleeding will be correlated with improved nitrogen balance and inversely correlated with infection rates days of mechanical ventilation ICU days and total hospital days
Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is threefold First to determine if a correlation exists between BUN and nitrogen balance in the context of hyperproteic nutrition administration Creatinine clearance will also be followed to determine if there is any harmful effect to the kidney secondary to an elevated BUN Secondly to determine if there is a difference in hospital acquired infection rate ventilator days ICU days and hospital stay between the current nutrition standard at Penn State Hershey Medical Center and a hyperproteic nutrition protocol Thirdly to determine the accuracy of at least three calculated creatinine clearance formulae when compared to a measured creatinine clearance
