Reference Polymer Nutrient Media: Comparative Characteristics and Possibilities of Differential Use
Abstract
Trophic homeostasis together with oxygen provision is known to form the basis for the body’s vital activity and a prerequisite to the elimination of many abnormalities [1]. Support of trophic homeostasis along with its intrinsic factor is determined not only by the capabilities and reality of providing an organism with essential nutrients, but also by the relevant conditions for their effective assimilation, particularly in the presence of a severely progressive pathological process [1, 2]. The last decades of the 20th century were marked by the rapid development of clinical nutrition science, giving rise to the whole industry of manufacturing various formulas for both the parenteral and enteral feedings of patients (the injured). Due to the fact that there is a great variety of feeding formulas (FFs), we have now a right to tell not only about the adequate substrate provision of patients in all directions, but also about the fact that we can perform differential nutritive metabolic therapy for an existing pathological condition. At present we have a good chance of implementing the qualitative nutritive support (NS) for any category of patients. At the same time, it should be noted that recently physicians of different specialties in our country are much better aware of the importance and necessity of timely using active NS in seriously ill patients (victims) [1—3]. This paper presents the comparative characteristics of the most popular and Russia’s registered balanced polymer FFs. All information on the properties of the products has been taken from either their original package, or the advertising matters distributed by this or that manufacturer. The key properties of FFs, such as chemical composition, osmolarity, formulations, and package, have been compared.hypermetabolism; feeding formulas; composition; osmolarity; choice
