Description:
Patients living with wounds face nutritional challenges, which can greatly affect their ability to heal unless properly addressed. Nutrition science has reached the next level as our understanding of protein, amino acids, and the collagen dipeptides prolyl-hydroxyproline (PO) and hydroxypropyl glycine (OG), has grown. This session will first address the nutritional requirements for protein and how best to meet this need. Then the breakdown of protein into amino acids will be discussed with an emphasis on the amino acid arginine and its role in wound healing. Finally, the effect of collagen dipeptides on wound healing will be explored with a discussion of the scientific evidence.
Learning Objectives:
At the completion of this course, learners will be able to:
- Explain the physiologic requirement for protein and how best to meet this need in patients with a wound
- Describe the breakdown of protein into component amino acids and the role of arginine
- Relate how collagen dipeptides function in the wound healing process
