What is necessary to see patient progress in clinical nutrition?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: Regular follow-up assessments and maintenance of records
Regular follow-up assessments and accurate records allow comparison of changes in weight, food intake, symptoms, laboratory values, and functional status. They show whether a diet plan is effective or needs modification. An initial assessment alone cannot show progress because the patient’s condition may change over time.
