NCT ID NCT07234669
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested whether having a dietitian help patients with lung disease order meals during a hospital stay could improve their nutrition and reduce the chance of being readmitted after discharge. 41 patients at nutritional risk took part. Researchers measured daily food intake and tracked readmissions within 30 days. The goal was to see if this simple support could make a difference in recovery and outcomes.
