A large number of studies are devoted to studying the effect of patient nutrition on the occurrence and treatment of pressure ulcers. Several studies, including the US National Long-term Treatment of Pressure Ulcers Study, have shown that weight loss and malnutrition were associated with a higher risk of pressure ulcers. One of the successful products specially created for the treatment of pressure ulcers and taking into account the results of research is the high-protein, energy-rich, ready-to-use enteral tube feeding food product Nutrison Advanced Cubison. It is a complete enteral nutritional supplement with an innovative nutrient composition for patients with chronic wounds, including pressure ulcers, or at increased risk of developing them. Taking into account the available data, it seems expedient to continue studying the unique combination of nutrients that make up the study food product Nutrison Advanced Cubison in order to develop the most effective nutritional protocols for patients at risk for the treatment and prevention of pressure ulcers.
