Nutritional Therapy for Acute Heart Failure Patients Admitted to the Cardiovascular Intensive Care Unit and Its Impact on the Nutritional Status at Discharge
By Mayuko Fukuse, Hiroki Nakano, Junya KAMESAKO and 3 others.
Abstract
Background: Nutritional status at discharge is a prognostic factor in acute heart failure (AHF) patients, but its relationship with early-phase nutritional therapy in the cardiovascular intensive care unit (CICU) remains unclear, so we evaluated the effects of HF severity, respiratory management, and nutritional dosage on nutritional status in AHF patients.
