They also reported greater use of leftovers thereby potentially reducing food waste.

To reduce the prevalence of chronic diseases healthcare professionals must encourage healthy eating, and therefore require the appropriate nutritional knowledge and skills. This scoping review critically synthesises the literature on nutrition education to understand why there is a gap in nutrition knowledge and skills among medical students and doctors (MSAD) in English-speaking countries, and the solutions which have been proposed in the literature to close this gap.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Methods&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This scoping review adhered to PRISMA Scr guidelines outlined by Tricco et al.

Studies investigating medical students/doctors nutrition education/knowledge were included. Data analysis was guided by Braun and Clarke's (2012) six-step thematic analysis approach and the Delve qualitative coding software analysis tool was used to identify the two principal themes and the 20 sub-themes.

The results identified four reasons for the gap in nutrition knowledge, including insufficient curriculum time dedicated to nutrition education, perceptions and confidence, stigmas and health habits, and challenges in clinical practice. The review also identified four potential solutions to minimise this gap, including curriculum changes, enforcement of standardised nutrition education guidelines, integration of nutrition in clinical practice and promotion of a multidisciplinary approach to nutrition education.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Conclusion&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This scoping review shows that there are multiple complex reasons for the gap in nutrition knowledge and understanding.

Data were collected using a Greek-translated version of the “Acute Care Hospital Foodservice Patient Satisfaction Questionnaire”, and analysed using descriptive measures, parametric and non-parametric tests.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>In total, 202 questionnaires (response rate 87.7%) were included in the analysis. The majority (90.1%) stated an overall satisfaction of “good” or “very good”. Questions related to “Staff &amp; Service” received the highest scores, while questions related to “Food Quality” and “Meal Size” received the lowest. “Food Quality” was found to have the greatest effect on overall satisfaction. There were differences between wards. Men and younger patients were more likely to report hunger after and between meals.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Hospital foodservice faces the challenge of catering to a range of nutritional needs of different patients. Systematic assessment of patient satisfaction is crucial to improving evidence-based, patient-centered care. Although patients' overall satisfaction with foodservice was high, reflection on the interpretation of results is required as patient satisfaction is a complex measure, and the study was conducted during a pandemic.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":54803,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2025-02-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/jhn.70026","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143475727","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

An amended Delphi study was conducted with 37 initial consensus statements generated from a targeted search of the literature. The agreement was assessed across two Delphi rounds and two online meetings. The full consensus was defined as the assignment of a score of 5 (strongly agree). A preliminary external validation was conducted with clinical and/or research dietetic professionals when delegates at the International Congress of Dietetics (ICD) 2021 voted during an online meeting on agreement with statements relating to patient assessment and delivery of a dietary counselling intervention.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Consensus was achieved for 27 statements across four themes, with justifications and commentary.

The ICD delegates voted on elements of assessment (77 of 140 delegates in agreement) and delivery of the intervention (37 of 101 delegates in agreement), demonstrating that consensus on these aspects of nutritional support interventions was low to moderate in this delegate sample.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Conclusions</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>Consensus was achieved by an international group of experts to define the minimum essential factors for delivering dietary counselling interventions for the management of malnutrition in a research context; however, further external validation is required.
