Frequently Asked Questions
FAQs
What is pre-operative nutrition?
Preoperative nutrition is the nutrition build-up before surgery. It includes consuming the required nutrients before surgery to improve post-surgery recovery and wound healing process. Preoperative nutrition also contributes to a good postoperative quality of life.
Which is right about surgical nutrition?
Most cancer patients are treated with surgery. Surgery that removes all or part of certain organs can affect a patient’s ability to eat and digest food. Surgery to the head, neck, esophagus, stomach, or intestines may affect nutrition
Why is nutrition important in pre-surgery?
Good nutrition before surgery reduces surgery-related complications like weight loss, and loss of muscle mass, and improves surgical outcomes. If the patient is undernourished before surgery, it may delay the post-surgery recovery process.
How do you prepare a patient nutritionally for a surgery?
Prior to surgery, it is advised to be nutritionally fit. A person posted for surgery has to work on improving weight, if it is low and eat a healthy nutritious diet rich in protein, vitamins, minerals and plenty of fluids.
