Our latest research article is now available. We aimed to describe the perceptions and experiences on nutrition of patients with chronic limb threatening ischemia (CLTI) and identify the barriers and facilitators influencing their nutritional intake. Patients with CLTI perceive nutrition as a necessity for survival and function, but express limited risk perception regarding adequate nutritional intake and undernutrition. Limited nutritional advice was received. Our findings underscore the urgent need for patient-centered nutritional care. By increasing nutrition-related knowledge and motivation, we can work towards preventing or treating undernutrition and, in turn, potentially improve clinical outcomes for patients with CLTI. Special thanks to our great team Jan Geertzen Prof. dr. Rienk Dekker MD PhD Harriët Jager-Wittenaar Leonie Krops Jean-Paul de Vries Martijn Dijkstra and Pieter Dijkstra. https://lnkd.in/e3GEfSyz
