  • Title: Nutritional support of the hospitalized patient.
    Author: Mizock BA, Troglia S.
    Journal: Dis Mon; 1997 Jun; 43(6):349-426. PubMed ID: 9210870.
    Abstract:
    Comprehensive care of patients in hospitals includes assessment of nutritional status and provision of appropriate support. This approach is facilitated by knowledge of the essential differences in metabolism between starved and stressed states. Nutritional assessment and care of patients in a hospital are based on answers to the following questions: Who gets it? When do they get it? How much do they get? What route is used to administer it? What kind do they get? What are common complications of enteral and parenteral support? What nutritional aspects are pertinent to common diseases?
