Protein turnover and metabolism in the elderly intensive care unit patient

Phillips, Stuart M.; Dickerson, Roland N.; Moore, Frederick A.; Paddon-Jones, Douglas; Weijs, Peter J. M. (Lectoraat Voeding En Beweging)

Many intensive care unit (ICU) patients do not achieve target protein intakes particularly in the early days following admittance. This period of iatrogenic protein undernutrition contributes to a rapid loss of lean, in particular muscle, mass in the ICU. The loss of muscle in older (aged >60 years) …

Preoperative functional status is not associated with postoperative surgical complications in low risk patients undergoing esophagectomy

van Egmond, M.A.; van der Schaaf, M.; Klinkenbijl, J.H.G.; Engelbert, R.H.H.; van Berge Henegouwen, M.I.

Preoperative functional status is a risk factor for developing postoperative complications (POC) in major abdominal and thoracic surgery, but this has hardly been evaluated in esophageal cancer patients undergoing esophagectomy. The aim of this prospective cohort study was to determine if preoperative …

de Morton Mobility Index Is feasible, reliable, and valid in patients with critical illness

Sommers, Juultje; Vredeveld, Tom; Lindeboom, Robert; Nollet, Frans; Engelbert, Raoul H.H.; Schaaf, Marike van der

BACKGROUND: Intensive care unit (ICU) stays often lead to reduced physical functioning. Change in physical functioning in patients in the ICU is inadequately assessed through available instruments. The de Morton Mobility Index (DEMMI), developed to assess mobility in elderly hospitalized patients, is …

Oxygenation threshold derived from near-infrared Spectroscopy

van der Zwaard, Stephan; Jaspers, Richard T.; Blokland, Ilse J.; Achterberg, Chantal; Visser, Jurrian M.; den Uil, Anne R.; Hofmijster, Mathijs J.; Levels, Koen; Noordhof, Dionne A.; de Haan, Arnold; de Koning, Jos J.; van der Laarse, Willem J.; de Ruiter, Cornelis J.

BACKGROUND: Near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) measurements of oxygenation reflect O2 delivery and utilization in exercising muscle and may improve detection of a critical exercise threshold. PURPOSE: First, to detect an oxygenation breakpoint (Δ[O2HbMb-HHbMb]-BP) and compare this breakpoint to ventilatory …

The association between muscle strength and activity limitations in patients with the hypermobility type of Ehlers-Danlos syndrome: the impact of proprioception

Scheper, Mark; Rombaut, Lies; de Vries, Janneke; De Wandele, Inge; van der Esch, Martin (Faculteit Gezondheid); Visser, Bart; Malfait, Franciska; Calders, Patrick; Engelbert, Raoul

PURPOSE: The patients diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome Hypermobility Type (EDS-HT) are characterized by pain, proprioceptive inacuity, muscle weakness, potentially leading to activity limitations. In EDS-HT, a direct relationship between muscle strength, proprioception and activity limitations has …
