Individualized Nutritional Care Including Adherence Support Improves Health-Related Quality Of Life In Individuals With Severe Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Undernutrition and reduced health-related quality of life (HRQoL) are common in severe chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and may exacerbate functional decline. This study evaluated whether individualized nutritional care with adherence support improves HRQoL in individuals with severe COPD at risk of undernutrition. Secondary outcomes included physical function, anthropometry, body composition, and dietary intake.
