Position statement recommendations


All people with cancer-related malnutrition and sarcopenia should have access to the core components of treatment including individualised medical nutrition therapy, targeted exercise prescription and physical activity advice, and physical and psychological symptom management.

 


Treatment for cancer-related malnutrition and sarcopenia should be individualised, in collaboration with the MDT, and tailored to consider multi-morbidities and meet needs at each stage of cancer treatment.

 


Multidisciplinary teams should work towards an individualised and coordinated approach to treating cancer-related malnutrition and sarcopenia.
