On March 31, news from Khanh Hoa Provincial General Hospital said that the Department of Nutrition has coordinated with the Department of Cardiology - Geriatrics, the Department of Internal Medicine and the Department of Stroke to organize thematic sharing sessions.
The sharing session focused on practical contents such as: Nutrition for diabetic patients, the role of protein for health, as well as a suitable diet for cardiovascular patients.
According to the Department of Nutrition, treatment nutrition plays a fundamental role in the treatment and recovery process.
Building a reasonable diet helps patients control blood sugar and blood pressure well, reduce blood fat, limit complications, and at the same time strengthen resistance, thereby contributing to improving treatment effectiveness.
Through communication sessions, patients are not only provided with knowledge but also specifically guided on building menus, choosing and processing suitable foods.
This helps patients be more proactive in practicing daily nutrition, instead of completely relying on general instructions.
A noteworthy point is that the sharing sessions also create conditions for patients to directly exchange with nutritionists and be answered questions related to diet during treatment.
Thereby, increasing understanding, strengthening trust and creating companionship between patients and medical staff.
Representatives of the Department of Nutrition said that in the coming time, the unit will continue to implement many in-depth communication topics, suitable for each disease group, in order to spread nutrition knowledge in the community.
Currently, the hospital has implemented nutritional examination and consultation services for chronic diseases such as gestational diabetes, kidney failure, cardiovascular disease; and at the same time supports nutritional intervention for malnourished and obese children.
In addition, the hospital is equipped with a body composition analyzer, which helps accurately assess the nutritional status of each patient, thereby building a suitable diet in the direction of personalization, improving treatment and health care efficiency.
