Protein in critical care

03 Jul, 2026

Why more protein may not be better

The presentation covers:

  • An overview of five recent trials on protein in critical illness: EFFORT Protein, PRECISe, NUTRIREA-3, TARGET Protein, and PROTECTION, and how these results could be implemented into practice for different patient groups.
  • The physiological basis for protein recommendations in critical illness, including muscle wasting, anabolic resistance and recovery.
  • How current evidence is challenging traditional assumptions that more protein is always better during critical illness.
  • Practical considerations for protein prescription, including varying protein delivery according to illness severity and stage of recovery.

Hosted by Sophie Blackmore, APD
