The Nutritional Assessment Platform is a group of Dutch experts aiming to develop evidence base and to stimulate nutritional assessment in daily practice
NAP developed Standard Opererating Procedures on:
- BIA
- BODPOD
- DEXA
- Handgrip strength
- Indirect Calorimetry
Next April they will organise a ESPEN workshop nutritional screening and assessment in Amsterdam.
During the ESPEN congress and the EFAD congress they organised a real-life nutritional assessment street. In this street nutritional assessment measurements were performed, under guidance by experts (members of NAP). We demonstrated bio electrical impedance, indirect calorimetry, handgrip strength, skinfolds, PG-SGA and the SNAP procedure (Short Nutritional Assessment Procedure).
