Malnutrition associated with critical illness has been unequivocally associated with increased morbidity and mortality in humans. Because malnutrition may similarly affect veterinary patients, the nutritional requirements of hospitalized critically ill animals must be properly addressed. Proper nutritional support is increasingly being recognized as an important therapeutic intervention in the care of critically ill patients. The current focus of veterinary critical care nutrition, and the major focus of this article, is on carefully selecting the patients most likely to benefit from nutritional support, deciding when to intervene, and optimizing nutritional support to individual patients.
危重病相关的营养不良已明确与人类发病率和死亡率的增加相关。由于营养不良可能同样影响兽医患者，因此必须妥善解决住院危重病动物的营养需求。适当的营养支持日益被视为危重病患者护理中的一项重要治疗干预措施。兽医重症监护营养的当前重点，也是本文的主要重点，是仔细挑选最可能从营养支持中受益的患者，决定何时进行干预，并针对个体患者优化营养支持。
