Abstract

The paper describes a computer-assisted infusion and nutrition programme, running on an IBM-compatible PC/XT or PC/AT, for a surgical intensive care unit specializing in burn treatment. Using inputs of patient and laboratory data relevant to infusion planning, the programme generates a schedule for balanced enteral or parenteral nutrition of adult and adolescent patients from the age of 14 upwards. Potential side effects and metabolic complications in nutrition therapy are minimized. Graphics provide a rapid status check on individual parameters whenever required.
