Making Nutrition Management Scientific, Objective and Simple with the Help of Technology.

Nutrition management is one of the cornerstones of care in the management of hospitalized patients, especially, for those who are critically ill. Significant numbers of hospitalized patients have alteration in appetite and the function of the gastrointestinal tract. Calculating the caloric goal, prescribed proteins to be delivered in a finite amount of water at a certain rate is the need of the hour and it becomes a daunting task to complete daily.

Act Fast as Time Is Less: High Faecal Carriage of Carbapenem-Resistant in Critical Care Patients.

Introduction: Carbapenem-resistant (CRE) are drug-resistant Gram-negative bacteria that are present in the community as well as in hospitals. Their infection and colonisation puts critically ill patients at high risk due to the drug-resistant nature of the strains and possible spreading of these organisms, even in a hospital environment.

Aim: To examine the presence and types of species in patients admitted directly from the community.
