Resumen
WANDEN-BERGHE, C.; SANZ-VALERO, J.; CULEBRAS, J. y RED MEI-CYTED. Red de Malnutrición en Iberoamérica. Information in Home Nutrition: the importance of the registries. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2008, vol.23, n.3, pp.220-225. ISSN 1699-5198.
The importance of the registries is determined by its data. In order for a registry to meet its objectives quality in codification, transcription and analysis is essential. These premises applied to a home nutrition registry give an information able to meet all the researchers' targets. The NADYA Group registry of the Spanish Society of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition in Spain tries to measure home artificial nutrition, its indications, methods and ways of administration and other variables. From their studies we may conclude that Parenteral Nutrition is underutilized at present, probably due to a lack of supporting structures able to meet all the needs of home patients. However, tube enteral nutrition is increasing, which represents a reduction in hospital costs and, more important represents an improvement of the patients quality of life and, in turn, also of their relatives.
