The Dialectical Approach to Nutrition Management in Terminal Cancer Patients
Nutrition management for terminal cancer patients requires careful consideration,aiming to avoid both insufficiency and excess.Comprehensive evaluation of the patient,including a thorough assessment of the tumor,is essential for a dialectical approach to treatment.This primarily involves attaching great importance to the assessment of the tumor and the patient's overall condition,while acknowledging the complexity of such evaluations,which serves as the foundation for developing personalized nutrition support plans.The balance and adjustment of nutrition management strategies emphasize the need to balance the nutritional needs and metabolic status of patients,avoiding both overnutrition and undernutrition.The importance of psychological intervention and exercise therapy in improving the nutritional status and quality of life of patients is also highlighted.Effective communication and decision-making with patients and family members are crucial for the successful formulation and implementation of nutrition management plans.
