Nutrition, the Often Forgotten Part

  • f the Equation for Wound Healing

Marlene Grenon, MD Associate Professor of Surgery University of California San Francisco UCSF Vascular Surgery Symposium 2016

Goals

  • Principles in wounds healing
  • Critical Nutrients
  • Role of omega-3 fatty acids

Chronic Wounds

  • Chronic Wounds: Wounds taking >4-6 weeks

to heal

  • Types

– Pressure ulcers – Post-op wounds – Ulcers (venous, arterial) – Burns – Stomas – Amputation wounds

Dorner et al, Adv Skin Wound Care 2009

Nutritional Risk Factors for Impaired Wound Healing

  • Significant weight loss
  • Inadequate protein intake
  • Inadequate nutrient intake
  • Extreme Body Mass index (low or high) with

limited mobility

  • Hypoalbuminemia
  • Dehydration

  • macrophages
  • epithelialization
  • angiogenesis
  • fibroblast proliferation

  • collagen maturation
  • tensile strength

Wound Healing

Vitamin A Vitamin C ZInc Protein Protein Glucosamine

American Dietetic Association’s Nutrition Care Process

  • Medical Nutrition

Therapy:

– Nutrition assessment – Nutrition diagnosis – Nutrition intervention – Nutrition monitoring and evaluation

  • Recommended

assessments:

– Anthropometric measurements – Biochemical data (anemias) – Hydration status – Nutrition-focused clinical examination – Diet history

Critical Nutrients

Water

  • Aid in hydration of wound sites and oxygen perfusion
  • Epithelial cells require moisture to migrate from the

wound edge to close the wound

  • Act as a solvent for minerals, vitamins, amino acids,

glucose

  • Transporting vital materials to cells and removing waste

products

Energy

  • Sources: carbohydrates and fat
  • Wound energy demand: collagen synthesis
  • Requirements 30-35 kcal/kg but need to be individualized

Fats

  • Good source of energy (9cal/g)

and spares protein for wound healing

  • Carries Vitamins A, D, E, K
  • Aids in absorption of Vit A
  • Provides padding under body

prominence and insulation of the skin

  • Overall:

– Underweight: gain weight – Overweight: weight maintenance

  • Sources: meat, full-fat dairy, oils

Williams JZ, Surg Clin N Am 2003; Ord H. Br J Nurs 2007; Edmonds J. Br J Community Nurs 2007

Carbohydrates

  • Stimulate insulin production

+ release

  • Prevent gluconeogenesis
  • Inadequate supplies

– Poor wound healing

  • Caution with diabetes

required

  • Sources: wholegrain cereals,

breads, potatoes, rice, pasta, biscuits

Role of Proteins

  • Maintenance and repair
  • f body tissue

– Collagen synthesis – Fibroblast proliferation – Tissue remodeling – Wound contraction – Maintain oncotic pressure – Skin structure

  • Daily intake of 1-

1.5g/kg/day

  • Up to 3g/kg/day in

severe wounds

  • Protein deficiency

impairs all stages of wound healing

Red and white meats, fish, eggs, liver, dairy products (milk, cheese yogurt), soy beans, legumes, seeds, nuts and grains

Amino Acids- L-Arginine

  • Essential structural

protein synthesis and protein metabolism

– Decrease muscle loss

  • Nitric oxide pathway

– Collagen deposition in wound healing

  • Enhance immune

function

  • Improve secretion of

growth hormone and insulin

  • Average dietary intake

provides 4g/day

  • 9 g/day promotes wound

healing for pressure ulcers *

  • Source: proteins
  • Side-effects: diarrhea.

*Desneves KJ, Clin Nutr 2005 Supplementation: Arginine 9g, Vit C (500 mg), zinc (30 mg)

Albumin

  • Albumin and pre-

albumin are a strong prognostic indicator and level of morbidity in many populations

– Albumin half-life almost 21 days – Pre-albumin 3 days

  • Although reflective of

malnutrition, affected by

  • ther conditions
  • hydration status
  • metabolism
  • infection
  • stress
  • liver disease
  • renal disease
  • inflammation

Normal range: 3.4-5.4 g/dL

Vitamin A

  • Increases the

inflammatory response in wounds

  • Stimulates collagen

synthesis and cross- linking

  • Restore wound healing

impaired by long-term steroid therapy or diabetes

– Mechanisms unclear

  • If deficient,

recommended dose: 10,000-25,000 IU x 7-10 days

  • Sources: milk, cheese,

eggs, fish dark green vegetables, oranges, red fruits, vegetables.

Vitamin C

  • Important in collagen

synthesis + crosslinking

  • Angiogenesis
  • Immune system
  • Increases absorption of

iron

  • Deficiency increases the

risk of wound infection

  • If deficient,

recommended dose: 250-1000mg daily

  • Sources: fruit and

vegetables (oranges, grapefruit, tomatoes, leafy vegetables)

  • Side effects: diarrhea,

scurvy

Zinc and Iron

Zinc

  • Protein and collagen

synthesis, tissue growth and healing

  • Recommended intake for

non-healing pressure ulcers, 15-50mg/day (no more than 14 days as it can also interfere with wound healing)

  • Sources: red meat, fish and

shellfish, milk, poultry, eggs.

  • Side-effects: GI complaints

Iron

  • Required in collagen

production and wound strength

  • Recommended intake in the

general population: 8mg/day (18mg/day for menstruating females)

  • Sources: red meat, fish,

eggs, wholemeal bread, dark green leafy vegetables, dried fruits, nuts.

  • Side-effects: nausea and

constipation

Nutrition and Wound healing in PAD

  • double-blinded fashion
  • 270 subjects
  • arginine, glutamine and b-hydroxy-b-methylbutyrate or a control drink

Summary

  • Assessment, diagnosis, intervention and

evaluation

– Perform nutritional assessment (weight, pre-albumin level and serum albumin level) – Encourage dietary intake or supplementation – Give vitamin and mineral supplements if deficiencies are confirmed or suspected

  • Dietary consultation
  • Await further trials and evidence

– Promising compounds
