Readmissions after discharge from the hospital will be measured three months after discharge.
| Registration of Readmissions 3 months after |
| Muscle strength | Measure Muscle Strength (in Kg) using Hydraulic Hand dynameter for Hand Grip strength in both hands. | Change in Hand Grip Strength (muscle strength) after 3 months |
| The mid-arm circumferences | The mid-arm circumferences (MAC) will be measured in cm with a measuring tape. This will be done on the left upper arm measured at the midpoint between the top of the shoulder and the tip of the elbow. | Change in the mid-arm cirumferences after three months. |
| Subcutaneous fat | Subcutaneous fat will be measured by Triceps skinfold thickness (TFS). This will be done in millimetres with a VirtuFits Digital Fat caliper skinfold in the triceps of the left arm. | Change in Subcutaneous fat after three months. |
| Muscle protein mass | Muscle protein mass will be measured by the mean arm muscle circumferences (MAMC) calculated to the formula: MAMC (cm) = MAC (cm) - (3,14 X TFS X 0,1) | Change in Muscle protein mass after 3 months |
| Knowledge about nutrition | Participants' knowledge about nutrition will be measured with a questionaire consisting of three questions related to the education video. | Registration in a questionaire three months after discharge from the hospital. |
