Major burns (burns >20% body surface area) can cause a patient’s body to enter a hypermetabolic state, in which increased calories and protein are required to meet elevated nutritional demands. Adequate nutrition can help avoid severe consequences that arise from inadequate nutrients, such as weight loss, wound healing, and infections. Normally, patients are given a rate-based feeding regimen. However, this method often falls short of meeting the patient’s nutritional demand. Recently, volume-based feeding has been introduced as a superior alternative.
