Explain the Postoperative Nutritional Care?

The therapeutic goal for the post-operative patient is rapid recovery to normal function and well being, minimum complications and early discharge. Nutrition plays all important role in minimizing the development of catabolism and returning the patient from the catabolic state to one of anabolism. As the nutrient losses due to catabolism during surgery are great, nutritional support is extremely important to aid recovery. In the post-operative period, nutrition support is used to reduce nutrition deficits that ordinarily develop in untreated patients during the period of NPO (nil orally) after surgery.
