Investigation of the Relationship Between Nutritional Status Assessment and Frailty in Critical Care Patients

Investigation of the Relationship Between Nutritional Status Assessment and Frailty in Critical Care Patients

This study aims to understand the effects of these two parameters on clinical outcomes by examining the relationship between NUTRIC and CONUT scores in intensive care patients. The results of the study may contribute to the development of new approaches to the treatment process of patients by better understanding the relationship between nutritional status and pre-hospital frailty in intensive care units. In addition, eliminating the deficiencies in this area will pave the way for the creation of more effective and personalized treatment plans for similar patients.
