Nutritional Screening and Nutritional Assessment NABH base hospital.pptxanjalatchi
Nutritional screening and assessment are important for hospitalized patients. Nutritional screening involves a quick evaluation to identify if a detailed assessment is needed, while assessment is an in-depth evaluation to identify specific nutritional needs. Hospitals should screen all admitted patients within 24 hours and assess those identified as needing it. Screening can be done by trained medical staff but assessment requires a dietician. Assessments follow a standard format and result in a nutritional plan. Addressing patients' nutritional needs improves health outcomes, so screening and assessment should be an integral part of hospital care.

Health and Nutritional Practices of University (campus) cafe.
Food is indispensable to all human beings but very often we come across illnesses attributed to over or under consumption of food or the lack of a healthy diet. Therefore, most of our health problems can be prevented by following a healthy diet. We have seen in the past two decades there has been a significant change in the dietary habits of people living in PAKISTAN. There has been a shift from traditional diet that is healthier and well balanced to a diet that has poor nutritional qualities. This change can be attributed to the busy life style and increased preference to eating out. Most often,we depend on highly processed convenient foods and foods that are high in calories and low in nutritional value.

Hospital food is an emotive subject and engenders headlines, usually negative, in the national newspapers. The NHS spends around £500 million on food to serve 300 million meals in 1,200 hospitals every year. For example, it buys 1.3 million chicken legs, 12.3 million loaves of bread, 13.5 million kgs of potatoes and 250,000 litres of orange juice a year. In 2000, a newspaper article estimated hospital food wastage at £144 million per year – almost three times the Department of Health estimate of £45 million. One of the main reasons being cited for the wastage was the poor quality of the food, although a definition of quality was not offered. Hospitals can deliver their catering services in-house; however, the NHS tendering process allows hospital trusts to outsource their catering processes if they want. Experts in food nutrition are concerned about the low priority given to the nutritional value of the food, with many patients becoming undernourished during their stay in hospital. Food is viewed by medical staff as part of the recovery process.
With regards to food quality hospitals do survey patients’ attitudes to the meals provided, some hold focus groups and generally ask about overall quality, temperature and how they were served at the bedside. Most patients have low expectations but meals are often the highlight of the day, especially for long stay patients.
Food Services
Over the years, the need to improve efficiency has resulted in reductions in staff numbers involved in the hospital catering service, along with centralisation of skills and equipment to produce economies of scale.
There are now many possible variations in food service and either an in-house operator or a contract operator could manage the food service.
The following are simplified overviews of the different systems (although every hospital can have a different variation according to local circumstances):
(a) The food can be produced on-site using a cook-serve system
A cook-serve system is a “traditional” catering operation where food is prepared on-site and distributed at the appropriate temperature to the wards, either plated or in bulk. This system allows for batch cooking which minimises hot-holding and nutrient losses and optimises the food’s sensory characteristics as it can be prepared close to the time required. However, in practice there can be a substantial time delay between production and consumption as wards are often situated a long way from the kitchens. The result is that many of the potential advantages are not realised. It is important that the food is served at 63ºC or above to control the multiplication of bacteria in the food.

It emphasizes the roles of various staff in nutritional screening, care planning, and meeting patients' nutritional needs through normal foods, supplements, and enteral/parenteral feeding if needed. The importance of education and training for staff on nutritional care is also highlighted.
This document discusses the nutrition care process (NCP), which is a standardized framework for providing nutrition care established by the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics. The NCP includes four main steps: nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention, and monitoring and evaluation. During nutrition assessment, data is collected from various sources and used to identify any nutritional discrepancies or diagnoses. The nutrition intervention step involves planning and implementing actions to treat any identified nutrition problems. Monitoring and evaluation then determines the effectiveness of the interventions. The overall goal of the NCP is to achieve and maintain optimal nutritional status for clients.

This document summarizes the review process for the second edition of the BDA's Nutrition and Catering Standards for Food and Fluid Provision for Hospital Inpatients. The review began in November 2016 with members working in groups to review chapters. Comments focused on the document being too long and repetitive. A review group was formed including chapter leads, content reviewers, critical readers, stakeholders, and designers. The full copy was sent to stakeholders in August for formatting and amendments. The new format is easier to read and navigate, follows BDA branding, and can be used as an online or printed document. The second edition was launched on the BDA website and stakeholders are being engaged to promote it.

This document summarizes the transformation of the food and nutrition program at the Connecticut Mental Health Center (CMHC). Previously, the program was suboptimal, with an outdated kitchen, unhealthy cafeteria food, and meals provided by an outside vendor. A new leadership team developed a master plan to renovate the kitchen, establish a healthy food policy, create an edible garden, and issue an RFP to select a new vendor. The goal was to integrate nutritious, locally-sourced food preparation on-site to promote holistic health and wellness for patients and staff.

Global Dementia Legacy Event: Raj Long, Senior Regulatory OfficerDepartment of Health
Raj Long presented on regulatory challenges for dementia treatment development and proposed innovative regulatory approaches. Key challenges included the prolonged time required for R&D, uncertainties around classifying and measuring dementia, and regulatory variances between geographies. These factors increase costs and risks for pharmaceutical companies, deterring investment. To address this, Long suggested regulatory designations to expedite review, adaptive development and licensing models, increased international regulator collaboration, incentives for developers, and public-private partnerships to accelerate cure discovery by 2025. Current approaches were deemed insufficient given the high risks and costs of dementia R&D.
The document discusses the need for global collaboration to conquer Alzheimer's disease. It notes that knowing is not enough and we must apply what we know. It advocates changing the dialogue around Alzheimer's to focus on the disease rather than just the patient. Key needs for "disease interception" are identified, including increased investment in basic science, incentivizing innovators, improving diagnostic tools and biomarkers, establishing clinical trial registries, building translational infrastructure between registries and trial-ready cohorts, using relevant outcomes measures, and creating a synchronized regulatory environment. The presentation promotes the Global Alzheimer's Platform as a way to foster data sharing, collaboration, and building a "global connectome" to accelerate progress on Alzheimer's.

ABDOMINAL TRAUMA in pediatrics part one.drhasanrajab
Abdominal trauma in pediatrics refers to injuries or damage to the abdominal organs in children. It can occur due to various causes such as falls, motor vehicle accidents, sports-related injuries, and physical abuse. Children are more vulnerable to abdominal trauma due to their unique anatomical and physiological characteristics. Signs and symptoms include abdominal pain, tenderness, distension, vomiting, and signs of shock. Diagnosis involves physical examination, imaging studies, and laboratory tests. Management depends on the severity and may involve conservative treatment or surgical intervention. Prevention is crucial in reducing the incidence of abdominal trauma in children.

Fundamental Principles for Hospital Food and Drink
1. Nutritious and appetising hospital food and
drink is an essential part of the personal
package of care and hospitals should take
all reasonable steps to ensure that patients
have a healthy food experience
2. All patients should be able to choose from a
reasonably varied menu that meets their
social and religious needs whilst
complementing their clinical care
requirements
3. All patients should have access at all times
to fresh drinking water, unless this is
contraindicated by their clinical condition
4. Access to food and drink outside planned
mealtimes should be available where
appropriate
5. Hospitals should promote a healthy diet
to their staff and visitors.
6. The criteria set out in the Government
Buying Standards for Food and Catering
services should be adopted as standard
where practical and supported by
procurement practices
7. Hospitals should regularly evaluate their
food services and act on feedback from
patients, demonstrating improvement
and aiming to achieve and maintain
excellence
8. Commissioners of NHS-funded care
should seek and reward excellence in
hospital food when contracting services
