Obesity is increasing in incidence, and can result in a situation similar to that in critically ill patients. Obesity-associated inflammation occurs usually as a chronic and latent low-grade systemic inflammatory response. With underlying systemic inflammation, obese patients exposed to a secondary illness or injury may develop an exaggerated inflammatory response. These patients are then in a hypercatabolic state, leading to decreased lean body mass and increased mortality. Therefore, nutritional therapy is important to suppress catabolism. Currently, hypocaloric high-protein feeding is recommended in every guideline, however, the supporting evidence is poor. Although the optimal nutritional therapy is still unclear, this paper stresses that obese patients are at an increased risk of developing malnutrition, and aggressive nutritional therapy should be given.
