Nutritional Intervention in Postoperative Patients

Nutritional intervention in postoperative patients involves carefully planning and providing the right nutrients to support healing and recovery after surgery. It includes assessing the patient's nutritional status, ensuring adequate intake of calories, protein, vitamins, and minerals, and adjusting their diet or providing supplements if needed. Proper nutrition helps strengthen the immune system, repair tissues, prevent infections, and reduce complications. This tailored approach aims to optimize recovery, promote healing, and improve overall outcomes by meeting the unique nutritional needs of each patient during their postoperative period.
