Nutrition in acute neurological conditions

Acute illness in neurological intensive care represent a heterogeneous group of patients with increased nutritional risk or malnutrition with a combination of underlying neurological disease and complications resulting from the acute illness. Correctly applied enteral and parenteral nutrition mitigates the development and consequences of stress malnutrition in an acute state. The importance of nutritional support and physiotherapy in the recovery stage is emphasized. The consequences of the experienced critically ill can persist for months to years after the primary stroke, independently of the actual neurological disease.
