Perioperative nutrition

Focus of research:

I am an anesthesiologist with a passion for (perioperative) nutrition. By combining pragmatism and research I am trying to get the basics right for patients with regard to pre- and postoperative nutrition. This means, among others, trying to solve the existing imbalance between fasting and eating/drinking perioperative in a multidisciplinairy way. My ultimate goal is that all patients only fast perioperative the time that is necessary for patient saftey reasons, and remain and/or optimise an adequate perioperative nutritional intake and nutritional status apart from this perioperative fasting period.
