[Nutritional management of patients during surgical prehabilitation and rehabilitation programs]. / Prise en charge nutritionnelle des patients pendant les programmes de préhabilitation et de réhabilitation en chirurgie.

Undernutrition (UD) increases perioperative morbidity and mortality. Its prevention and treatment are therefore essential in surgical prehabilitation and rehabilitation programs. Nutritional treatment is individualized according to the patient's nutritional status, ingesta and protein-energy requirements. Oral nutrition is optimized to increase intakes through personalized dietary advice and oral nutritional supplements. Artificial nutrition support is indicated in cases of UD or high risk of UD before major surgery. Enteral nutrition is preferred to parenteral nutrition when the digestive tract is functional.
