The International Working Group for Patients' Right to Nutritional Care presents its position paper regarding nutritional care as a human right intrinsically linked to the right to food and the right to health. All people should have access to food and evidence‐based medical nutrition therapy including artificial nutrition and hydration. In this regard, the hospitalized malnourished ill should mandatorily have access to screening, diagnosis, nutritional assessment, with optimal and timely nutritional therapy in order to overcome malnutrition associated morbidity and mortality, while reducing the rates of disease‐related malnutrition. This right does not imply there is an obligation to feed all patients at any stage of life and at any cost. On the contrary, this right implies, from an ethical point of view, that the best decision for the patient must be taken and this may include, under certain circumstances, the decision not to feed. Application of the human rights‐based approach to the field of clinical nutrition will contribute to the construction of a moral, political, and legal focus to the concept of nutritional care. Moreover, it will be the cornerstone to the rationale of political and legal instruments in the field of clinical nutrition.

“…Los antecedentes de esta propuesta se encuentran en la Declaración de Cancún, documento que reconoce el derecho humano a la alimentación y soporte nutricional, enfatizando en el deber de tener un abordaje nutricional óptimo y oportuno en todo paciente hospitalizado (15) . Diez años después el derecho humano reconocido en 2008 evoluciona al cuidado nutricional, mismo que también incluye la protección contra el hambre y el derecho a la alimentación con la terapia nutricional, pero se fundamenta y orienta en la protección y el respeto de la dignidad del paciente mediante el proceso de cuidado nutricional con el enfoque de Derechos Humanos (16,17) .…”

La malnutrición asociada a la enfermedad es una entidad clínica multifactorial que representa un problema sostenido a lo largo del tiempo, con implicaciones graves para el paciente y para los sistemas de salud. Además de los factores de riesgo que presenta el paciente como su entorno económico, sociocultural y estado clínico, también el factor de mala praxis del personal de salud influye en que la malnutrición asociada a la enfermedad no se detecte ni se trate y se mantenga. La reflexión que se hace en este escrito parte de los principios de la ética biomédica de no maleficencia y justicia, ya que propone que la negligencia y la injusticia son factores agravantes de la malnutrición asociada a la enfermedad. Estas cuestiones, aunque pueden privar al paciente de ejercer su derecho humano al cuidado nutricional, están presentes por desconocimiento y falta de educación del personal de salud respecto a la importancia de la nutrición clínica y del proceso de cuidado nutricional. La propuesta generada es que la educación en diferentes niveles, entendiéndose también como capacitación y cultura institucional, puede ser un área de oportunidad para minimizar el problema de la vulnerabilidad nutricional, respetando, defendiendo y manteniendo la dignidad humana con el cuidado nutricional mediante el estudio de la ética y la ética biomédica para incluir los cuatro principios bioéticos a la práctica clínica diaria. Palabras clave: malnutrición, cuidado nutricional, derechos humanos, Declaración de Cartagena, bioética, nutrición clínica.
