The Evolving Role of Nutrition Therapy in the Hospitalized Patient: Focus on Lipids and Protein

Access Activity

Overview / Abstract:

Despite recognition of underfeeding in hospital settings and its consequences, a substantial number of hospitalized patients can be characterized as malnourished. In this roundtable discussion, Canadian and US-based faculty discuss diagnostic criteria for malnutrition, available and emerging lipid emulsion products and their influence on inflammation and ensuring adequate protein delivery for optimal nutrition support.

This activity is intended for physicians, pharmacists, nurses and dietitians who manage clinical nutrition.

Upon completion of this activity, participants will be able to:
• Explain new standard diagnostic criteria for malnutrition outlined by the Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) and how it applies to clinical practice
• Interpret available outcome data on new lipid emulsion products and how the differences in fatty acid profiles of new products may influence inflammation
• Discuss how high vs. standard protein delivery may benefit hospitalized patients, particularly in the ICU
• Compare and contrast newly available and emerging macronutrient parenteral nutrition products, and describe how these new products can aid in improving nutrition therapy for hospitalized patients
