title: [How can we give quick yet relevant nutritional advice in our daily medical practice?].
abstract: Within our diabetology Unit CHUV-PMU, the dietetic consultation is an integral part of the patients' management, for the majority of diabetic patients. The general practitioner offers very different perspectives. What are the possible modalities of ambulatory dietetic counselling? Are the numerous existing standardized documents really relevant? We bring a critical analysis on such documents, the use of which often engenders a feeling of failure for the patients and the health professionals. We suggest an intervention guide so that the nutritional education work undertaken in an ambulatory consultation may then lead to dietetic management.
