Burn Micronutrient Repletion Pilot Study

Completed · Phase 1

Conditions studied: Burn

In brief

Burn injury patients undergo a series of metabolic changes that, if untreated, could lead to reduced health outcomes. Nutrition is thought to play a vital role in post-burn recovery. The research team developed a novel vitamin and mineral supplementation protocol based on current scientific literature. The study will test the hypothesis that the novel vitamin and mineral supplement regimen will improve adult patient recovery from burn injury.
