“The Effect of Higher Protein Dosing in Critically Ill Patients”
The investigator will investigate the effects of higher protein/amino acid dosing (a?Y2.2 g/kg/d) vs usual protein/amino acid dosing (a?$1.2 g/kg/d) on clinical outcomes in nutritionally high risk ill patients.

Usual Protein/Amino Acid Group
Protein targets will be set using pre-ICU dry actual weight. For patients with BMI >30, ideal body weight based on a BMI of 25 will be used. We will endorse the guidelines for energy targets set forth by ASPEN/SCCM, especially as it pertains to the obese patient.
