The Centre for Advanced Learning (CAL) is excited to bring you the Nutrition Support for Critical Care Evergreen course - Module 1: Physiology of the body in health and critical illness.

Learning outcomes:
  • Outline the processes by which the body reacts to insult
  • Explain how metabolism is altered in critical illness and compare this to metabolism in health and starvation
