“…Therefore the management of patient information has been improved. 2) EN therapy continues to be recognized as extremely useful 11,12) and is now increasingly prescribed instead of PN therapy. In 2005, the Dietary Reference Intakes were signiˆcantly revised, and nutritional management based on this revision has become necessary.…”

One of the important roles of pharmacists as members of a nutrition support team is nutritional prescription support. We developed a nutritional prescription support system (NPSS) that facilitates prescription support and analysis and evaluated its usefulness in nutritional therapy. An NPSS for prescription support and the management of patient information was created. With this NPSS, the nutritional status was assessed, and, on the basis of the results, such variables as the total energy expenditure were calculated. This system allows prescription support for parenteral nutrition (PN) therapy, enteral nutrition (EN) therapy, and the transition period between them. This system was used for 2 representative patients and evaluated. In a malnourished patient receiving oral warfarin, EN solutions were compared by means of the NPSS, and an appropriate EN solution was selected. In addition, the prothrombin time-international normalized ratio was monitored, and favorable results were obtained regarding the adjustment of the warfarin dose and nutritional management. In a patient with aspiration pneumonia, continuous nutritional management to EN from PN therapy was straightforwardly performed with the NPSS. This NPSS allows rapid, comprehensive nutritional management during the transition period to EN from PN therapy, despite these therapies being considered separately in conventional nutritional management. The NPSS is useful for simplifying prescription support and facilitating information sharing among members of a nutrition support team.

“…The authors agree with Dr. Finucane that every effort should be made to provide residents “careful assistance in eating foods they like,” but at the same time they recognize that it is not always possible for patients with multiple comorbidities to receive adequate calories and protein orally. If a resident cannot or will not eat, tube feeding should be started if consistent with the resident's goals of care 5,6 …”
