Clinical nutrition
We take care of your health through clinical nutrition
Clinical innovation in the service of nutritional health
The priority areas of nutrition and health care intervention of the Institute of Nutrition and Health, developed at the Clínica Universidad de Navarra, focus on the prevention and treatment of malnutrition in the hospital environment, as well as on disease prevention and the promotion of healthy lifestyles.
Hospital nutrition
Prevention and treatment of illness-related malnutrition in hospitalized patients.
At the Clínica Universidad de Navarra we assess the nutritional status of all admitted patients. Based on this analysis, we design personalized nutritional treatments, ranging from modified oral diets to specialized nutritional support, such as enteral or parenteral nutrition.
Our goal is to promote the patient's recovery and well-being during their hospital stay, through precise nutritional care adapted to each need.
Our work focuses on
Nutritional screening of inpatients
Personalized treatments according to clinical status
Continuous follow-up during hospitalization
constant update of clinical protocols
Current assistance projects:
nutritional assessment of pediatric patients.
nutritional assessment and follow-up of oncology patients.
development of hospitalization protocols and adapted diets for patients with dysphagia.
