Speaker: Mara Lee Beebe, MS, RD, LD, CNSC Developed by: Ainsley Malone, MS, RD, LD, CNSC, FAND, FASPEN Objectives Outline the essential role protein plays in nutrition intervention Describe current evidence supporting protein provision in specific populations The older adult Critically ill patients The obese patient Outline current guideline recommendations for protein requirements Define practical strategies for achieving protein requirements via case application Protein Essential Facts Essential components of all living organisms Most important macronutrient Amino acids building blocks and intermediates Essential, non-essential, conditionally essential Peptides Di and tri peptides Complex proteins Structure variation impacts function

2 Protein Functions Protein Digestion and Absorption Protein Requirements RDA: 0.8 g/kg BW/d for adults «Minimal amount» Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Range (AMDR) 10-35% total calories Research supports some may benefit from protein intakes greater than the RDA Athletes / highly active adults Older adults Protein Requirements The RDA minimal amount is based on metabolic equilibrium concept Nitrogen balance study method utilized 0.65 g/kg/d body weight for healthy adult 2 standard deviations to account for individual variation Requirement reflects safe requirement to avoid a deficiency leading to loss of LBM

4 Re-examination of Protein Requirements in Older Adults Negative nitrogen balance demonstrated with lower protein intake in older adults1 Study compared 0.8 to 1.62 g/kg/d protein Negative N balance of -4.6 ±3.4 vs positive 3.6 ±1 Three weeks of consuming 0.8 g/kg/d resulted in loss of lean body mass2 Diet controlled study of 10 ambulatory men/women (55 77 yrs) Decreased urinary nitrogen Decreased thigh muscle area It is fundamental, as the basis for assessing its adequate intake, to move from a focus on meeting the dietary protein requirement when it is defined by body nitrogen balance studies to defining optimal intakes for health and reduction of chronic disease. 1Am J Clin Nutr 1994;60:501-09; 2J Gerontol A Biol Sci Med Sc 2001;56:M Nutrients 2015, 7, ; doi: /nu Recommendations for Protein in the Older Adult Critical Illness ESCEO: European Society for Clinical and Economic Aspects of Osteoporosis and Osteoarthritis ESPEN: The European Society for Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism PROT-AGE: International study group to review dietary protein needs with aging Clin Geriatr Med 2015;31:

JPEN 2015; epub 12 month study in Australian medical/surgical ICU (n=119) Randomized to two PN formulas 0.8 g/kg/d or 1.2 g/kg/d Outcomes Primary: hand grip strength at discharge Secondary: fatigue score, nitrogen balance, arm/leg anthropometrics and ultrasound, hospital LOS and mortality Conclusion: A higher amount of amino acids demonstrated improvements in several outcomes and provides support for an increased protein recommendation Ferrie S.

9 Hypocaloric HighProtein Regimens in Obese Patients -?? s Guidelines What Do They Tell Us? Hypocaloric low protein feedings are associated with unfavorable outcomes. Clinical vigilance for adequate protein provision is suggested A.S.P.E.N Clinical Guidelines for the Obese Patient Observational cohort study of ICU patients 2722 patients 333 with Class II or III obesity Average calorie intake 1009 kcals Average protein intake 46 g/day 0.4 g/kg/day (IBW) Mortality higher in the Class II obesity group (0.039) Intens Care Med 2009;35:1728. Putting It All Together How To Achieve High Protein Requirements TPN formulas Requires high amino acid base formulation 15% Lower base AA formulations result in increased fluid intakes Difficulty with standardized (pre-mix) formulas Enteral formulas Improved options with introduction of very high protein EN formulas Protein content = 35% - 37% ( g/liter) Additional formulas to consider (25% protein)

11 Pep Up Protocol Effectiveness Multicenter quality improvement initiative ICU s using protocol compared with concurrent control group of ICU s Respiratory and sepsis top two admission diagnosis APACHE 11 scores of 21.7 and 24.2 Feed Me Protocol* Feed Early Enteral Diet Adequately for Maximum Effect Volume based feeding approach Implemented as an alternative to traditional rate-based feeding approach Heyland DK. J Parent Ent Nutr 2015;39: * Taylor B. Nutr Clin Pract 2014;29: Feed Me Protocol Effectiveness* Case Application Pt BK is a 44 yo male admitted with SBO. Consult for TPN POD# 1 from ex-lap with partial colectomy, end ileostomy, intraperitoneal drain placement, and wound vac due to bowel perforation. Patient Information Ht: 6 0 Wt: 111kg BMI 33 PMH: diverticulitis, partial colectomy ileosigmoid anastomosis and VHR 6 months ago due to colonic obstruction, Roux-en-y gastric bypass 9 years ago, peripheral neuropathy, gout, alcohol abuse. Clinical Information Intubated and sedated NPO since admission (6 days). Medications: protonix, propofol, levophed, vasopressin, NS MIV Pertinent labs: Na 142, K 3.5, Cl 118, CO2 20, BUN 23, creat 1.37, phos 2.3, mg 2.1, ionized calcium 1.12, WBC 14.9, PH Protein g/kg/actual weight: 1.1 (0.3) vs 1.3 (0.4) (p=0.36)

12 Nutrition Assessment Unable to obtain full nutrition history due to vent. Per H&P, symptoms started day of admission. No reported wt loss. No signs of muscle or fat wasting. + Edema but was severely fluid positive at time of assessment. History of alcohol abuse-8 beers/day but recently reduced to a few beers 3-4 days per week per H&P. At risk for malnutrition. Estimated Energy Needs: Kcals/day (11-14kcals/kg actual wt)* 1361Kcals/day (60% of Penn State 03) Estimated protein needs: 162g (2g/kg IBW)* Additional needs: Thiamine/folate for alcohol hx *Per Critical Care Guidelines Hospital Course and Nutrition Intervention Day 1-3 Consult to Nutrition Support Team to start parenteral nutrition (PN). Intervention: Goal PN (including propofol) provided 1450kcals (14kcals/kg actual wt) and 165g pro (2g/kg IBW). Lipids held due to propofol (300kcals/day). Multiple electrolyte abnormalities addressed. Trophic tube feeds (TF) initiated on day 3 by surgery team. Hospital Course and Nutrition Intervention Day 4 Consult to advance tube feeding slowly to goal. Propofol weaned off. Intervention: Very high protein formula increased 10ml every 8 hrs to goal of 60ml/hr with a protein modular 3x per day to provide 1560kcals and 160g pro per day. Wean PN per with TF advancement. Hospital Course and Nutrition Intervention Day 7 Emergently taken to OR for abdominal washout with temporary abdominal closure due to intraabdominal abscess and wound dehiscence. Intervention: TF held and PN resumed previous goal.

13 Hospital Course and Nutrition Intervention Day 9 Pt returned to the OR on day 9 for complex wound closure. Consult to restart tube feeds post-op. Intervention: TF continued per previous goal (14kcals/kg actual wt and 2g pro/kg IBW). PN wean ordered per protocol. Pt continued to tolerate TF at goal rate while on the ventilator. Nitrogen balance study obtained after 3 days at goal TF. Protein increased to 2.3g/kg IBW due to negative result. Conclusion BK tolerated both parenteral and enteral nutrition without hyperglycemia while on the hypocaloric regimen. A protein modular was required to meet the patient s protein needs while on tube feedings despite using a very high protein enteral formula. BK transition to a skilled nursing facility at discharge on both TF and an oral diet. Conclusion and Take Away Protein is an essential component of nutrition intervention Re-examination of requirements for the older adult Increasing evidence toward improved outcomes with early protein intakes in the critically ill High protein with lower calories of potential benefit in the obese patient Higher protein enteral formulas and/or modular protein supplementation necessary References 1.
