How the Covid-19 epidemic is challenging our practice in clinical nutrition—feedback from the field


The viral epidemic caused by the new Coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 is responsible for the new Coronavirus disease-2019
(Covid-19). Fifteen percent of the Covid-19 patients will require hospital stay, and 10% of them will need urgent respiratory
and hemodynamic support in the intensive care unit (ICU). Covid-19 is an infectious disease characterized by inflammatory
syndrome, itself leading to reduced food intake and increased muscle catabolism. Therefore Covid-19 patients are at high
risk of being malnourished, making the prevention of malnutrition and the nutritional management key aspects of care
