@RuthChinuck I looked at nutritional issues post icu, some patients I interviewed had long icu status but not all.

Paper published - great collaboration with @LesleyMoiseyRD

Post ICU nutrition so important for ICU survivors yet intakes remain inadequate @ElisabethWaele #ESPEN2022

Enjoying being hunkered down in the warm today listening to some of my fab colleagues talk about post ICU rehab services @ICS_updates #SOA21 @bronwenconnolly @ICULone @Jomcpeake22 @cswhite100 @drjoelmeyer @JudithMerriwea2

@danni_dietitian @RobDietitian @iamyourgasman @BDACriticalCare @lucymorganRD Totally agree, poor appetite is just one of the many reasons why patients don’t eat. Supplemental ng feeding is often needed to facilitate nutritional recovery during the ward phase of care.

@danni_dietitian @Paul_Wischmeyer @LifeWithoutDiet @pccm_doc @SICUPharmD @SCCM @SCCMPresident @BethTaylorRD @LRSorce @ICUnutrition I agree Danni, I think it is so important for dietitians to combine clinical and academic activities but it is not without its challenges - I'm actually speaking on that very subject tonight @BDAEastScotland
