Severe pneumonia is transferred out of the intensive care unit and something to eat

Patients with severe pneumonia can eat some light and easy-to-digest foods after being transferred out of the intensive care unit. At the same time, you can also eat foods rich in protein, vitamins and other nutrients in moderation.

1. Food: Patients with severe pneumonia need to be ventilated with ventilator to maintain normal respiratory function during treatment in the intensive care unit, during which gastrointestinal peristalsis will be relatively slow, so there will be loss of appetite. At this time, you can eat easy-to-digest liquid foods such as millet porridge, pumpkin porridge, and yam porridge, which can reduce the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and improve the discomfort symptoms. In addition, you can also eat more fresh fruits and vegetables, such as apples, bananas, spinach, celery, etc., which are rich in dietary fiber and a variety of minerals, which help promote gastrointestinal peristalsis, speed up the speed of metabolism, and have a certain role in helping the recovery of the disease.

2. Nutrients: Patients with severe pneumonia usually lead to a decrease in body resistance, so it is necessary to pay attention to strengthening nutritional supplements, you can eat egg custard, lean porridge, pork rib soup and other foods rich in high-quality protein, and at the same time, you can also appropriately consume milk, fish, shrimp and other calcium-rich foods, which are conducive to enhancing physical fitness and improving disease resistance.

In addition, it is also necessary to pay attention to maintaining a regular work and rest, ensuring sufficient sleep time, and avoiding staying up late. If other uncomfortable symptoms appear, it is recommended to seek medical attention for examination and treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
