Surgical outcome tends to improve when the patient is in good physical health. Optimizing a patient’s nutritional status is an important part of this process and is essential for proper wound healing.
Wound healing sets off a complex chain of events that involved increased cellular activity and an intensified metabolic demand for nutrients. This activity requires a number of vitamins and other chemical cofactors to complete its job. Without these building blocks, wound healing takes longer and may be compromised. Patients who don’t meet their nutritional needs may be at risk for increased bruising and swelling, delayed wound healing, and other wound-related complications.
To augment their health, many Americans are taking nutritional supplements on a routine basis. While generally beneficial and safe, the uses of several popular supplements, around the time of surgery, are not recommended. Certain nutritional supplements may cause adverse reactions during or after surgery, including prolonged bleeding.
We offer our surgery patients a line of vitamins and healing supplements that are formulated with essential nutrients to support wound healing, enhance tissue repair, support the immune system, prevent infection, minimize inflammation and reduce bruising. At the same time, the products have selectively excluded any nutrients that can cause problems during peri-operative period.
