strategy in prioritizing enteral and parenteral nutrition. This symposium
will include an array of topics, including the metabolic issues
facing the septic patient, issues relating to nutrient delivery and utilization,
the controversial areas of specific nutrients such as arginine
in sepsis, glutamine, fish oils, nucleic acids and trace minerals and

discussions and evidence-based case studies."
