An analysis of 28 studies in major elective surgery showed only IMPACT® formula reduced the risk of infectious complications by 51% vs. standard nutrition or no intervention. Other immunonutrition formulas showed no significant effect.1
- Contains a unique immunonutrient blend (arginine, omega-3 fatty acids from fish oil, nucleotides) clinically proven to reduce risk of infection and length of stay after major elective surgery2
- Contains immune-modulating nutrients supported by the 2016 Critical Care Nutrition Guidelines3**
- The IMPACT®family has been shown in multiple clinical trials to support the immune system and help reduce rates of infection, ventilator days and LOS in surgical and critically ill patients when used as part of an early enteral nutrition regimen
- Recommended intake of 3 cartons per day for 5 days pre-, peri- or post-operatively4 or as otherwise recommended by a healthcare provider
