Respiratory Quotient
• RQ = O2 consumption / CO2 production
• Carbohydrates ~ 1.0
• Protein ~ 0.81
• Lipids ~ 0.7
• Alcohol ~0.66
• Normal “American” diet RQ = 0.87
• Excess glucose leads to a RQ > 1.0

Respiratory Quotient
• An RQ > 1 indicates net lipogenesis
• Overfeeding syndrome is a common reason for failed extubation
• The excess glucose, converted to CO2, increases minute ventilation in order to prevent respiratory acidosis
• Re-evaluate caloric needs
![Page 11: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)

Starvation
• Glycogen from liver depleted in ~48 hrs
• The body first catabolizes skeletal muscle amino acids into glucose
• Certain tissues are highly dependent on glucose for energy, thus some glucose production is always required
• In prolonged starvation, the body will adjust to using fat stores, and proteolysis decreases
![Page 13: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Starvation
• “The metabolic tragedy of sepsis”
• The normal suppression of proteolysis seen w/ prolonged fasting does not occur in sepsis
• Breakdown of protein continues
• Also, high cortisol levels lead to persistent hyperglycemia which inhibits lipolysis
• Thus septic pts can have enormous untapped fat stores and still catabolize muscle
![Page 14: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)

TPN
• Pre-operative albumin is a predictor of morbidity and mortality
• In mildly malnourished patients, pre-op TPN increased infectious complications
• In severely malnourished patients, TPN decreased non-infectious complications
![Page 20: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
TPN
• Refeeding syndrome (aka Phosphate steal): new glucose administration leads to rapid intracellular shifts of K, Phos, Mg, because they are used in glucose metabolism. Sudden drop in plasma levels seen.
• Especially, phosphate depletion leads to muscle weakness, respiratory distress
![Page 21: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)

a) 1 gm/kg/hr
b) 5 gm/kg/hr
c) 10 gm/kg/hr
d) 15 gm/kg/hr
![Page 22: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)

Enteral feeding
• Nutrients are absorbed into portal system and pass through the liver (vs TPN)
• This allows for hepatic and intestinal production of products that have a role in anabolic signaling, leading to more efficient use of nutrients
• Full strength tube feeds may cause an osmotic diarrhea
• Always check residuals (<150cc)
![Page 25: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Enteral feeding
• Immunonutrition: enteral diets enhanced with omega-3-fatty acids, RNA, vitamins, arginine, have been shown to reduce infectious complications in patients undergoing surgery for malignancy
![Page 26: Nutrition: Basic Science Lecture Series](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062307/556be58bd8b42a65458b4655/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

Oxalate stones
• Oxalate is normally bound by calcium
• However, due to a diseased TI, bile salts and thus lipids are not well absorbed. The intralumenal calcium binds with fat (saponification) instead of oxalate. Oxalate is then absorbed in the colon, leading to hyperoxaluria and stone formation when excreted from kidney

Bariatric surgery: deficiencies

• B12 deficiency (lack of IF from bypassed stomach)
• A, D, E, K deficiencies
• Thiamine deficiency (likely from prolonged emesis) - can cause Wernicke’s
