Co-design of a cancer nutrition care pathway by patients, carers, and health professionals: the CanEAT pathway.

Purpose: Limited practical resources exist to guide optimal nutrition care for patients, carers, and health professionals (HPs). This study aimed to co-design a cancer nutrition care pathway to guide and improve the provision of consistent, evidence-based care with consumers and HPs.

Methods: This study utilised an experienced-based co-design (EBCD) approach over five stages.

Patient and carer experiences of nutrition in cancer care: a mixed-methods study.

Purpose: Evidence-based guidelines exist to guide health professionals and services about cancer nutrition care; however, the views of cancer patients and carers are not well understood. This study aimed to understand the experience and needs of cancer patients and carers regarding nutrition care across the care continuum.

Methods: Using a mixed-methods approach, cancer patients and carers completed a cross-sectional online survey and focus groups.

The Effect of Evidence-Based Nutrition Clinical Care Pathways on Nutrition Outcomes in Adult Patients Receiving Non-Surgical Cancer Treatment: A Systematic Review.

Nutritional decline associated with non-surgical cancer treatment has been well documented. The implementation of an evidence-based nutrition care pathway is one approach suggested to improve the nutrition outcomes of this group of patients. We aimed to systematically review published original research to determine whether evidence-based nutrition clinical care pathways, as compared with usual care, improve outcomes for patients receiving non-surgical cancer treatment.
