FOR THE DIETARY MANAGEMENT OF PROTEIN DEFICIENCY
ProSource® TF Liquid Protein is designed for tube feeding administration to meet the protein needs for critical illness, protein energy malnutrition and protein deficiency with good GI tolerance and greater patient application.
Recent studies indicate that critically ill patients require a minimum of 1.2-1.5 g/kg/ day of protein and as much as 2+ g/kg/day of protein.41,42,43 Most enteral formulas available are able to supply adequate calories, but they are unable to meet the protein target without overfeeding. Subsequently, tube fed patients, often require a protein supplement to meet their individual protein needs, but not all protein supplements are appropriate for all patients.
