To explore current practices of nutrition and metabolic screening, assessment and management prior to Haematopoietic Stem Cell Transplant (HSCT) in UK and ROI transplant centres. Nutrition and metabolic parameters assessed in the survey include glycaemic control, lipid function, liver function, nutritional screening, nutritional assessment, nutrition intervention (tube feeding, diet, micronutrient) and exercise. This work will be used to inform the design of a UK dual centre feasibility study of personalised nutrition and metabolic care for HSCT patients prior to transplantation.
