Interprofessional Approach to Assessment from a Nutritional Perspective is a unique case study compilation of scenarios that medical professionals may encounter in both an inpatient and outpatient setting. While these case studies focus primarily on the nutritional assessment and care of the individual, they are appropriate for medical and nursing students in addition to dietetic students making it an excellent companion for an medical, nursing or nutritional assessment text.
Unique perspectives included in the case studies are:
- Medical or surgical conditions for an individual patient to reflect on real world presentation.
- Recognizing that patients may present more than one disease, chronic condition, complication, or injury.
- Allowing for prioritizing significance of patient problems and systematic approach to assessment.
- Recognizing the need for an interprofessional approach to patient care with emphasis on recognizing the expertise many health care team members bring to an overall assessment.
- Emphasizing the overall incidence of malnutrition in acute care and the need to diagnose malnutrition in appropriate inpatients and outpatients.
- Case studies address patients needing diet intervention and/or education
