Food Intake
Not only is food intake an important factor, but the quantity and quality of food has been shown
 to aid in the healing process of pressure ulcers. Since eating is a cognitive function, it has been
 shown that patients who are able to feed themselves are less likely to develop pressure ulcers.
 If the oral intake of conventional food is restricted, easily digestible commercial food products
along with vitamin supplements can be given.

Dysphagia

Dysphagic patients suffer a pharyngeal disorder have difficulty in swallowing.
Since oral intake of food is important try moistening the food with water, or a liquid supplement.
If the patient still has difficulty swallowing, use semi-solid food such as jelly, pudding, etc.,
or liquid supplements such as Tromelin, Sanken Lacti, or other similar products.
