This document discusses the role of nutrition in wound healing. It outlines the four phases of wound healing and key nutrients involved in each phase such as vitamins C, A, and K, protein, zinc, and arginine. Poor nutrition status can compromise wound healing by limiting the nutrients available. The document recommends assessing patients' nutrition risk, referring to a dietitian, optimizing protein and calories through oral supplements if needed, and considering arginine or zinc supplementation depending on serum levels. Nursing staff are responsible for nutrition screening, communication, and ensuring dietary recommendations are followed to support wound healing.

Daily minimum nutritional requirements of the critically illRalekeOkoye
Critically ill patients have nutritional needs that are essential in their management. This is a synopsis with specific calculable applications for the daily recommended components of nutrition in critical care.
Ethanol (CH3CH2OH), or beverage alcohol, is a two-carbon alcohol
that is rapidly distributed in the body and brain. Ethanol alters many
neurochemical systems and has rewarding and addictive properties. It
is the oldest recreational drug and likely contributes to more morbidity,
mortality, and public health costs than all illicit drugs combined. The
5th edition of the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders
(DSM-5) integrates alcohol abuse and alcohol dependence into a single
disorder called alcohol use disorder (AUD), with mild, moderate,
and severe subclassifications (American Psychiatric Association, 2013).
In the DSM-5, all types of substance abuse and dependence have been
combined into a single substance use disorder (SUD) on a continuum
from mild to severe. A diagnosis of AUD requires that at least two of
the 11 DSM-5 behaviors be present within a 12-month period (mild
AUD: 2–3 criteria; moderate AUD: 4–5 criteria; severe AUD: 6–11 criteria).
The four main behavioral effects of AUD are impaired control over
drinking, negative social consequences, risky use, and altered physiological
effects (tolerance, withdrawal). This chapter presents an overview
of the prevalence and harmful consequences of AUD in the U.S.,
the systemic nature of the disease, neurocircuitry and stages of AUD,
comorbidities, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders, genetic risk factors, and
pharmacotherapies for AUD.

Recomendações da OMS sobre cuidados maternos e neonatais para uma experiência pós-natal positiva.
Em consonância com os ODS – Objetivos do Desenvolvimento Sustentável e a Estratégia Global para a Saúde das Mulheres, Crianças e Adolescentes, e aplicando uma abordagem baseada nos direitos humanos, os esforços de cuidados pós-natais devem expandir-se para além da cobertura e da simples sobrevivência, de modo a incluir cuidados de qualidade.
Estas diretrizes visam melhorar a qualidade dos cuidados pós-natais essenciais e de rotina prestados às mulheres e aos recém-nascidos, com o objetivo final de melhorar a saúde e o bem-estar materno e neonatal.
Uma “experiência pós-natal positiva” é um resultado importante para todas as mulheres que dão à luz e para os seus recém-nascidos, estabelecendo as bases para a melhoria da saúde e do bem-estar a curto e longo prazo. Uma experiência pós-natal positiva é definida como aquela em que as mulheres, pessoas que gestam, os recém-nascidos, os casais, os pais, os cuidadores e as famílias recebem informação consistente, garantia e apoio de profissionais de saúde motivados; e onde um sistema de saúde flexível e com recursos reconheça as necessidades das mulheres e dos bebês e respeite o seu contexto cultural.
Estas diretrizes consolidadas apresentam algumas recomendações novas e já bem fundamentadas sobre cuidados pós-natais de rotina para mulheres e neonatos que recebem cuidados no pós-parto em unidades de saúde ou na comunidade, independentemente dos recursos disponíveis.
É fornecido um conjunto abrangente de recomendações para cuidados durante o período puerperal, com ênfase nos cuidados essenciais que todas as mulheres e recém-nascidos devem receber, e com a devida atenção à qualidade dos cuidados; isto é, a entrega e a experiência do cuidado recebido. Estas diretrizes atualizam e ampliam as recomendações da OMS de 2014 sobre cuidados pós-natais da mãe e do recém-nascido e complementam as atuais diretrizes da OMS sobre a gestão de complicações pós-natais.
O estabelecimento da amamentação e o manejo das principais intercorrências é contemplada.
Recomendamos muito.
Vamos discutir essas recomendações no nosso curso de pós-graduação em Aleitamento no Instituto Ciclos.

New Directions in Targeted Therapeutic Approaches for Older Adults With Mantl...i3 Health
i3 Health is pleased to make the speaker slides from this activity available for use as a non-accredited self-study or teaching resource.
This slide deck presented by Dr. Kami Maddocks, Professor-Clinical in the Division of Hematology and
Associate Division Director for Ambulatory Operations
The Ohio State University Comprehensive Cancer Center, will provide insight into new directions in targeted therapeutic approaches for older adults with mantle cell lymphoma.
STATEMENT OF NEED
Mantle cell lymphoma (MCL) is a rare, aggressive B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (NHL) accounting for 5% to 7% of all lymphomas. Its prognosis ranges from indolent disease that does not require treatment for years to very aggressive disease, which is associated with poor survival (Silkenstedt et al, 2021). Typically, MCL is diagnosed at advanced stage and in older patients who cannot tolerate intensive therapy (NCCN, 2022). Although recent advances have slightly increased remission rates, recurrence and relapse remain very common, leading to a median overall survival between 3 and 6 years (LLS, 2021). Though there are several effective options, progress is still needed towards establishing an accepted frontline approach for MCL (Castellino et al, 2022). Treatment selection and management of MCL are complicated by the heterogeneity of prognosis, advanced age and comorbidities of patients, and lack of an established standard approach for treatment, making it vital that clinicians be familiar with the latest research and advances in this area. In this activity chaired by Michael Wang, MD, Professor in the Department of Lymphoma & Myeloma at MD Anderson Cancer Center, expert faculty will discuss prognostic factors informing treatment, the promising results of recent trials in new therapeutic approaches, and the implications of treatment resistance in therapeutic selection for MCL.
Target Audience
Hematology/oncology fellows, attending faculty, and other health care professionals involved in the treatment of patients with mantle cell lymphoma (MCL).
Learning Objectives
1.) Identify clinical and biological prognostic factors that can guide treatment decision making for older adults with MCL
2.) Evaluate emerging data on targeted therapeutic approaches for treatment-naive and relapsed/refractory MCL and their applicability to older adults
3.) Assess mechanisms of resistance to targeted therapies for MCL and their implications for treatment selection

Nutrition and wound healing
1. NUTRITION: SETTING
THE LIMITS FOR WOUND
HEALING
ELIMINATING THE WEAKEST LINK
Laura King APD, AEP
2. Agenda and Objectives
Increase awareness of the ability of
compromised nutrition status to compromise
wound healing
Increase knowledge of broad range of
nutrients that can play a nutritional role in
wound healing physiology
Increase knowledge of active ways that you
can positively influence the wound care
outcomes for your residents
5. Regeneration- Inflammatory phase
Day 1-6
Key nutrient involvement
Vitamin K and Calcium contribute to blood clotting
Arginine and Vitamin C regulates nitric oxide
Glutamine and carbohydrates are utilised with
increased energy requirements
Glutamine is utilised as a DNA/ RNA precursor
Vitamin A stimulates immune response
6. Repair-Proliferative phase
Day 3 to Week 3
Key nutrient involvement
Arginine regulates fibroblast and macrophage
contributions to the repair phase
Zinc, Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Iron stabilise, or
contribute to the development of, collagen
structure
7. Revascularisation-Proliferative phase
Day 3 to Week 3
Key nutrient involvement
Vitamin C contributes to capillary formation
Protein (amino acids) provides the building blocks
for collagen synthesis
Protein (amino acids) are involve in making
enzymes required for vascularisation
Inadequate protein and fatty acids lead to
processes that interfere revascularisation
8. Re-epithilialisation-
Remodelling or maturation phase
2 weeks to 2 years
Key nutrient involvement
Zinc is used for dozens of enzymes that
contribute to epithelialisation
Vitamin C, Magnesium and Zinc contribute to
ongoing stability of late stage wound
9. Nutrients involved in Wound Healing
Carbohydrate
Fat
Protein
Zinc
Vitamin C
Vitamin A
Copper
Arginine
Glutamine
Selenium
This broad
range of
nutrients
implicates
any resident
with low
nutrition
status
10. Good nutrition is a must!
The broad range of nutrients required means that
residents who are:
At risk of poor nutrition
+
Have a wound
=
Recipe for poor healing
12. 1. Adequate protein and energy
Well how do we measure this?
Unintended weight loss (>10% loss in 1-3/12)
Not receiving oral supplementation
Poor MMT score
Nutrition screening, using a validated tool for the appropriate
clinical setting, should be undertaken on all adults with pressure
injuries to identify those at risk of poor healing due to nutritional
problems.
NHMRC Grade of recommendation: B
Onward referral to Dietitian as indicated
13. 2. Nutrient Supplementation
Zinc
Vitamin C
Vitamin A
Copper
*Supplementation is valuable ONLY when serum
levels are low*
NOTE: Supplementation of zinc or copper in normal
serum is detrimental- it impacts on zinc/copper and
iron metabolism- a delicate balance
14. 3. Arginine supplementation
A conditionally essential amino acid
If deficient, may be the weakest link to
effective wound healing
In chronic wounds > stage 2; the benefit from
arginine supplementation will be seen in 2-3
weeks if going to be effective
15. Okay, so can be done?
Assess risk in regards to nutrient
intake- identify weight change, loss
of appetite and refer as necessary
Dietitian assessment and request of personalised
measures to optimise oral protein and energy
intake
Dietitian assessment may indicate opportunity to
optimise serum levels- LMO request for serum
Replacement of inadequate nutrients as indicated
by serum results
Dietitian may consider Arginine supplementation
in specific cases

20. Assessable component
Okay! So now that you have learnt about how
nutrition can optimise wound healing- put
yourself to the test...
21. Assessable component
1. With regards to nutritional wound care
management, nursing staff in residential aged
care are responsible for:
a. Commencing oral supplementation and referral to
Dietitian as indicated
b. Ordering blood tests and prescribing nutrient
supplementation
c. Nutrition screening, communication and
documentation, actioning referrals, ensuring
compliance with supplementation
d. All of the above
e. A and C
22. Assessable component
2. In your own words describe why poor nutrition
can be considered the weakest link in
effective wound healing.
23. Assessable component
3. True or false:
Poor nutrition is always the cause of poor
wound healing.
(If false, provide brief list of other factors that
may need consideration)
24. Assessable component
