Define energy requirement during thyphoid, Biology

Assignment Help:

Energy

Energy: Fever  is characterized by  elevation of BMR,  thus caloric requirements are increased.. The increase  in  caloric needs is dependent on  severity  of  infection and degree of  rise of  temperature. During fevers there is a decrease in appetite, as well as, a decreased tolerance due to enteric infection, thus a desired increase in calories is 10-20% above  the  normal recommended  requirements. The actual intake can be adjusted and give  as per patients' tolerance.
