[Dietetic care for patients after maxillofacial trauma].
Patients suffering from maxillofacial trauma and subsequent intermaxillary fixation are temporary at risk of severe malnutrition and substantial weight loss. Eventually, these consequences may lead to impaired fracture healing and wound healing, and thus to deteriorated overall functional recovery. Adequate evaluation of several specific risk factors warrants the opportunity to stratify individual patients to be at either high or low risk for nutrition related health problems. Customary dietary assessment and counselling can be provided when necessary.
