Nutritional Therapy in Patients at Risk for Malnutrition and Sarcopenia in Pulmonary Rehabilitation

Intervention arm: Usual care + individualized nutritional therapy. Patients at risk for malnutrition and sarcopenia will receive a counselling by the nutritional therapist twice a week. The therapists will assess the patient's energy and protein demand in order to develope appropriate individual measures (e.g additional meals or supplements) to increase patients' energy and protein intake. Individual nutritional therapy is already usual care in patients with high risk for malnutrition, but not for patients with only light to moderate risk of malnutrition and risk of sarcopenia.
