Malnutrition despite abundance?!
The new brochure "Malnutrition despite abundance?!", published jointly by the GESKES, the Swiss Society for Nutrition (SGE) and the Swiss Association of Certified Dietitians HF/FH (SVDE), provides information about the alarming situation.
The aim of the brochure is to raise awareness of the issue of malnutrition, provide preventative suggestions, treatment proposals and refer people to qualified specialist centres. A small test makes it easier to clarify your own situation and indicates a possible risk.
Further information and the test to clarify your own situation can be found in the adjacent PDF file.
Tube feeding at home
The SVDE Specialist Group for Enteral and Parenteral Nutrition (FG epe) published the brochure "Tube feeding at home" for the first time in 1998 and updated it in 2022.
The chapters have all been retained, but various adjustments have been made to the content. The patient brochure is intended to support counselling for tube feeding at home. It is available in German, French and Italian.
