Abstract
Basic principles of feeding of the patients (adult and children) with a serious thermal trauma, which cause considerable disturbances of a homeostasis of organism: hypermetabolic inverse of a metabolism, decrease of immune resistance, losses of water and electrolytes masses. Early use of quality and valuable nutrition for such patients (under observation was 56 patient--adult and children of different age) is a method of treatment reliably improving outcome of an intensive therapy reducing number of complications of a burn disease and contributing to the prompt convalescence of the patients.
