App for diet record (MyFood)

Patients in the intervention group will record their food intake, tube feeding, nutrition-related symptoms and body weight in the MyFood app in at least three consecutive days in advance of follow-up.The patients will thus be able to keep track of their nutrition status. They will also have access to nutrition tips for how to reach requirements if they struggle to eat sufficiently or relief symptoms that can affect food intake.Healthcare staff at the hospital and outpatient clinics will use MyFood to monitor the patient's nutrition and document this information in the electronic patient record. They will also receive decision support tailored to each individual patient, e.g. recommendations for how to use oral nutrition supplements if the patient's intake of energy or protein is too low. Patients who struggle to fulfill their requirements will receive an additional referral to a registered dietitian for nutrition treatment between week 5 and 11.
