The metabolic derangements of injury are known to influence nitrogen (N) requirements whilst less is known about individual amino acid (AA) requirements. This study was designed to investigate prospectively N vs AA requirement in 36 injured patients treated with total parenteral nutrition (TPN). The non-protein caloric input was 30 kcal kg-1 day-1 and three AA solutions were assessed containing the same AAs but in different proportion. Overall N intake was set at 0.35 g N kg-1 day-1 for solution A and B and 0.24 g N kg-1 day-1 for solution C. Solution B was similar to A, both being enriched in branched chain AAs (BCAA: 0.69 g kg-1 day-1 in B compared with 0.55 g kg-1 day-1 in A) while decreased in aromatic and sulphurated forms (1.75 times ...
