Impact of oral nutritional supplements in post-discharge patients at nutritional risk following colorectal cancer surgery: A randomised clinical trial
Guidelines on clinical nutrition recommend the use of appropriate nutritional support therapy for surgical cancer patients at risk of malnutrition both during hospital care and following discharge from the hospital. However, previous studies regarding nutritional interventions have mainly focused on patients during their hospital stay; there is limited evidence supporting the recommendation of nutritional interventions for post-discharge patients after cancer surgery, particularly those who underwent gastrointestinal cancer surgery and at high risk of malnutrition.
