| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this study was to develop a dietary intervention method that corresponds to the recovery status of post-gastrectomy patients from diet initiation to post-discharge by investigating their dietary intake and blood biochemistry. The BMI, gross energy and fat intakes, and serum high-density lipoprotein cholesterol and EPA levels of the post-gastrectomy patients in this study were significantly decreased. In particular, BMI did not increase after discharge. The reductions in post-total gastrectomy protein and fat intakes were remarkable, but protein intake showed indications of gradual recovery before discharge. The post-gastrectomy and predischarge fat intakes, and levels of n-3PUFA, EPA, and docosahexaenoic acid were decreased, and the postdischarge serum EPA level remained low. Preventing reductions in protein intake in the early postoperative stages and in n-3PUFA (EPA) intake in the discharge planning stage will contribute to the recovery of total gastrectomy patients.
