Explain the Anabolic Phase - Dietary Management for Burns?

During this period the patient is well hydrated and the reactions due to metabolic stress are under control. The patient may still be hypermetabolic and has depleted reserves of all nutrients. Rigorous nutrition support during this period is essential to promote fast recovery and proper rehabilitation. Proper nutritional care during this period can help in preparing patient physically for undergoing successful skin grafting/ any other surgery. Transplantation of organs or body parts is done much latter during the anabolic phase.
