简要总结
At hospital, short term actions are used (adaptation of meals, oral supplementation…) to fight malnutrition. Oral supplementation can have a positive impact on weight gain. But actions should continue at home, particularly to maintain autonomy for elderly. The hypothesis is that practical workshop about enrichment and interest of foods can help malnourished patients to change their eating habits. The main goal of this study is to evaluate the effects of this workshop on improving nutritional status, measured by Mini Nutritional Assessment
详细描述
This is a mono center cohort study of a 4-months follow-up on elderly patients after hospitalization.
Nutritional parameters and evaluation of the quality of life will be collected during hospitalization and output during a visit at 4 months at home. These parameters will be studied in two groups : nutritional workshop vs usual dietary counseling
