Brief Summary: The goal of this observational study is to assess food intake in hospitalized patients

The present study will evaluate the impact of a novel in-hospital meal concept three channel food concept on total energy and protein intake macronutrient distribution and patient appreciation

Food intake will be assessed as part of usual care by weighing all leftovers eg food that patients did not consume
Detailed Description: There are various possible strategies to increase protein intake during hospitalization such as providing more protein-rich foods fortifying meals andor food products supplementation with oral nutritional supplements ONS andor providing well-timed snacks An appropriate in-hospital meal service is regarded as a key element of the strategy to minimize deterioration of the nutritional status Conventional hospital meals 3 main meals a day prepared by a central kitchen are often low in protein and energy and are not appreciated by patients due to lack of taste colour and flavour resulting in inadequate food intake particularly protein intake There are a number of avenues to improve nutritional intake with type of meal service and existence of individual contact with catering staff like mealtime assistance as important factors The MUMC has adapted its in-hospital meal system and the present study will evaluate the impact of this novel in-hospital meal concept three channel food concept on total energy and protein intake macronutrient distribution and patient appreciation

The aim of this study is to assess whether a novel in-hospital meal concept can effectively increase daily total protein and energy intake during hospitalization when compared to a historic control
