Abstract

U liječenju bolesti i stanja povezanih s prehranom ključan je interdisciplinarni pristup koji uključuje suradnju između liječnika i nutricionista. Taj holistički pristup omogućuje cjelovitu brigu o pacijentima, uzimajući u obzir njihove prehrambene potrebe i ciljeve. Cilj ovog rada bio je procijeniti opće znanje o prehrani među specijalistima gastroenterologije, endokrinologije, medicine rada, opće prakse i nutricionistima. Podaci su prikupljeni pomoću modificiranog upitnika "Opći upitnik o prehrani", koji je osmišljen kako bi obuhvatio različite aspekte prehrambenog znanja. Rezultati su pokazali značajne razlike u odgovorima između specijalizacija, s endokrinolozima koji su postigli najbolje rezultate (71,5 ± 3,54). Nutricionisti su pokazali općenito bolje rezultate (71,31 ± 3,59) u usporedbi s liječnicima (63,23 ± 6,23), što ukazuje na njihov fokus u područje prehrambene skrbi. Ovi rezultati naglašavaju važnost multidisciplinarnog pristupa i uspostavljanja suradnje između liječnika i nutricionista kako bi se osigurala optimalna prehrambena skrb za pacijente.

Abstract (english)

In the treatment of nutrition-related diseases and conditions, an interdisciplinary approach involving collaboration between physicians and nutritionists is essential. This holistic approach enables comprehensive patient care, considering their nutritional needs and goals. The aim of this work was to assess general knowledge about nutrition among specialists in gastroenterology, endocrinology, occupational medicine, general practice and nutritionists. Data were collected using a modified questionnaire "General Nutrition Questionnaire", which was designed to cover different aspects of nutritional knowledge. The results showed significant differences in responses between specialties, with endocrinologists achieving the best results (rezultate (71.5 ± 3.54). Nutritionists (71.31 ± 3.59) showed generally better results compared to doctors (63.23 ± 6.23) which indicates their focus in the field of nutritional care. These results emphasize the importance of a multidisciplinary approach and the establishment of collaboration between physicians and nutritionists to ensure optimal nutritional care for patients.
