Personalized Nutrition Delivery to Improve Resilience in Older Adult Trauma Patients

Sponsor: Duke University

Summary

This is a Pilot study designed to set up for an randomized clinical trial (RCT) comparing the SeND Home pathway to a standard of care nutrition delivery in critically ill older adult trauma patients. Subjects will be randomized 3:1 to either SeND Home precision nutrition pathway or control arm. Subjects randomized to the SeND Home arm will receive oral nutrition supplements (ONS) up to 3 times per day while in the hospital and for 4 weeks after discharge. Subjects in the standard of care arm will receive normal nutrition recommendations from their clinical providers. Participants in both groups will undergo non-invasive tests that measure how much energy (calories) they are using, body composition, and muscle mass.
