Nutritional Intervention in Malnourished Elderly Patients
Effectiveness of Nutritional Intervention in Malnourished Elderly Patients
研究概览
详细说明
Malnutrition is still a problem in elderly patients and this may be associated with reduced muscle strength and ADL function (activities of daily living). Malnourished Medical Inpatients/Outpatients and District Nurse patients with a Body Mass Index < 20 kg/m2 are asked to participate.
Comparison(s): The patients are randomized to either ordinary dietary advice with a recommendation of four meals per day or similar dietary advice and two daily sip feeding supplements. The study supplementation is Fresubin Protein Energy Drink and this will give additional 600 kcal and 40 gram protein a day. The study period is 12 weeks with a visit at inclusion, week 6 and week 12.
Primary and secondary outcome parameters are measured at inclusion and week 12
