Alumni Fun Day B20 Generations unite for a day at Camp Maas. ues- tion: Dear Bar, y son was in an automobile ac- cident and suf- fered cognitive impairment. He now has multiple problems with his eating and nu- trition. Can you offer any advice/ insight? Thanks, Ronnie. nswer: Dear Ronnie, It sounds like your son suf- ers from Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI). Unfortunately, TBI and other brain injuries/impair- ments (e.g., Alzheimer's) can pres- ent a number of nutritional and dietary issues involving the health of the affected individual. Af The first and perhaps most important step is to obtain a proper evaluation of the -.,.?/ patient. This is usually ' ' done as part of a team approach involving a primary care physician, registered dietitian, and other appropri- ate professionals. The questions a nutrition evaluation seeks to answer are: (1) What was the nutritional status prior to injury? (2) What is the current nutritional status and how does it impact recovery? (3) What should the nutritional status be? Each case is different, but some typical medical/nutritional issues are: physical problems (e.g., swal- lowing); loss of appetite, taste or smell; fatigue; memory and coor- dination challenges; and others. A registered dietitian can help.
