Quality Nutrition is higher on the healthcare agenda than ever before but will the economic climate affect our ability to combat the £13billion cost of malnutrition in the UK?


BAPEN’s Malnutrition Matters Conference focuses on providing quality nutrition care in difficult times. This year’s annual conference will open with ‘Nutrition in a Cold Climate’ – a must for all UK healthcare professionals who care about treating malnutrition. By focusing on the many exciting new quality initiatives to combat malnutrition in Wales, Scotland, Northern Ireland and England, the aim is to bring to light strategies to ensure these are successful despite the current economic climate.


With an ever-increasing older population the subject of muscle wasting, or sarcopaenia, should be high on the agenda of everyone working in clinical nutrition. Two major symposia will look at the science and treatment of this debilitating condition.


The conference will close with a debate around a highly contentious question – what is the most effective form of oral nutritional support? ‘The F Word Debate – Food First, Fortification or Fully Balanced Formula?’ will ask whether oral nutritional supplements really are superior to food in treating malnutrition in all-clinical settings. Two key figures from the world of clinical nutrition will be putting their views across and hoping to stimulate some active participation for the audience. Other highlights will include:


• Living with Coeliac Disease • Comprehensive Intestinal Failure Management: From Dream to Reality • Feeding Decisions in Critical Care • Food for Thought: Challenging Problems in Malnutrition • Home Parenteral Nutrition: The Collaboration Between Secondary and Primary Care – An Established Model


• Muscle Wasting with Age – A New Challenge in Nutritional Care: The underlying factors and management of sarcopaenia


• How to Succeed in Audit • MAPPMAL: Multidisciplinary Approach to Develop a Prototype for the Prevention of Malnutrition in Older People


• The F Word Debate – Food First, Fortification or Fully Balanced Formula • Abbott Satellite - Nutrition and Lean Body Mass • Pennington and Cuthbertson Medal Lectures • Industry Partners Exhibition


There will also be the cream of British clinical nutrition research in the form of original communications and posters as well as the chance to relax and enjoy yourself at the 007 themed annual dinner.
