Description

Nutrition is an important aspect of care for any patient entering the hospital, but the patient admitted to the intensive care unit (ICU) is at an even higher risk for nutritional compromise. Nutrition affects all ages, from the neonate to the geriatric patient, and all patient populations. Evidence-based practice guidelines regarding appropriate nutritional support within the critical care setting are published. Yet, researchers continue to identify that despite published evidence, countless ICU patients continue to lack adequate and timely nutritional support on admission.

It is important to share the latest information related to nutrition in critical care with more health care professionals so that all patients receive appropriate nutrition. Each of the authors in this issue promotes nutrition in their careers and individual practice areas, which brings knowledge from many different arenas throughout the nation. This issue discusses nutrition throughout the lifespan, special patient populations, implementation of guidelines, and how nutrition is being utilized as medical therapy.

It is hoped that the reader will take the information included in this issue regarding nutrition in critical care and apply it to his or her practice. If not yet utilizing the evidence-based guidelines in your practice, the guest editors encourage you to ask why not. Health care practitioners can positively impact the care their patients are receiving by being engaged and continually learning. There are a number of resources available to guide implementation of nutrition support in all patient populations, the guest editors encourage readers to be the change agent that patients need.
