Nutritional Management in Respiratory Critically Ill Patients -an Observational Study in Mainland China

• Conditions: Nutritional Deficiency

• Registration Number: NCT04958447
• Lead Sponsor: China-Japan Friendship Hospital

Brief Summary

The important role of nutritional management in the treatment of ICU patients has been paid more and more attention. Reasonable nutritional management can improve the nutritional status of patients, reduce the risk of malnutrition, shorten the length of ICU stay, improve the quality of life of patients, and reduce the mortality of patients, thereby improving the prognosis. Many studies have investigated the nutritional status and implementation of ICU patients. It is generally believed that the nutritional status of ICU patients is not good, and the implementation of standardization needs to be improved.The data on the nutritional status and implementation of RICU patients in mainland China is rare. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the implementation and compliance of nutritional support treatment for RICU patients in mainland China.

Detailed Description

Respiratory critically ill patients have their own disease metabolism and treatment methods. However, RICU medical staff generally do not pay enough attention to nutrition support treatment. The data on the nutritional status and implementation of RICU patients in China is rare. But the data plays an important role in carrying out nutrition-related research, formulating the goals of continuing education programs for nutrition support treatment, guiding the introduction of medical insurance policies and the revision of consensus. Therefore, the main purpose of this study is to investigate the implementation and compliance of nutritional support treatment for RICU patients in tertiary hospitals in mainland China, so as to lay the foundation for further relevant work.
