In 45 burn patients serum amino acids together with liver enzymes and other serum parameters were determined. Phe levels, Phe:Tyr and Phe:TAA ratios were correlated with the clinical course of the patient's condition. Based on empirical data, an increase in the Phe:TAA ratio of over 3% was found to be the best indicator of a critical period in the clinical course. An increase in the Phe:TAA ratio above 3% accompanied the signs of sepsis. If the patient recovered, the ratio decreased. Ratios which kept constant or even increased--indicating a possible fatal clinical outcome--were found to be alarming. In our experience Phe levels or Phe:Tyr ratios did not have indicative functions.
