Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This project aims to evaluate an implementable screening tool and nutritional interventions that will lead to improved quality and patient safety. The aims of this pilot study are twofold: Purpose 1: assess the prognostic value of malnutrition and sarcopenia for identifying patients at increased risk of adverse postoperative outcomes following elective or semi-elective orthopedic procedures. Purpose 2: assess the clinical benefit of postoperative oral supplementation with a commercially-available nutritional supplement that includes conditionally-essential branched chain amino acids.
