Nutrition in patients with traumatic brain injury: Nutrition in patients with TBI by Stojanović Milena, Janković Radmilo, Ranđelović Milica, Vasilijić Milena, Nikolić Aleksandar, Radeka Jovan

“…After the initial injury, a cascade of events at the cellular and molecular level, including cell swelling, changes in cell membrane permeability, influx of immune or inflammatory mediators, and release of excitatory neurotransmitters result in so-called "secondary" brain damage. Optimization in energy and protein provision has taken its place lately in the fundamental concept of treatment in critically ill patients with moderate and severe brain trauma, together with reducing intracranial pressure and prevention of hypotension and hypoxia. …”
