WCN26-7802 Continuity-of-Care Model for Nutritional Management in Haemodialysis Patients: Identifying Gaps and Opportunities for Improvement in Singapore

Haemodialysis (HD) patients are at high risk of malnutrition due to reduced dietary intake, inflammation, comorbidities, and nutrient losses during dialysis. Their nutritional status often declines during hospitalisation, increasing susceptibility to post-discharge deterioration. Prompt identification of patients experiencing nutritional decline during and after hospitalisation is crucial to support recovery and prevent further decline. However, continuity of nutrition care between acute hospitals and community settings remains limited, resulting in gaps in management.
