Technologies & Facilities
Body Composition Analysis
Our experts formulate a diet plan after proper analysis and other key factors like fat percentage, muscle mass and bone density. This assessment enables targeted dietary planning and weight management strategies.
Monitoring Metabolic Rate
Resting Metabolic Rate (RMR) is assessed when there is a need to determine a patient’s precise energy requirements, particularly in clinical or therapeutic nutrition planning.Resting metabolic rate (RMR) testing helps customize caloric needs and nutrition plans.
Digital Nutrient Analysis Tools
Our department utilizes advanced nutrient analysis software to evaluate patients’ dietary intake with high accuracy. These digital tools assess the adequacy of both macronutrients (carbohydrates, proteins, fats) and micronutrients (vitamins and minerals), allowing dietitians to identify nutritional gaps and excesses. Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA or DXA) provides highly accurate data on bone mineral density, fat distribution, and lean muscle mass.
Parenteral Nutrition Support
The Dietetics and Clinical Nutrition Department is equipped with specialized systems to deliver both enteral (tube feeding) and parenteral (intravenous) nutrition, ensuring comprehensive nutritional support for patients unable to consume food orally.
Diet Counseling & Educational Materials
Our specialists provide private, one-on-one consultation with dedicated care and customised diet plans. The department is equipped with visual aids, interactive tools, and multimedia resources, which enhance understanding of complex nutritional concepts and promote active patient participation.
Nutrition for Recovery and Wellness
Our Nutrition Rehabilitation Services are thoughtfully designed to support patients recovering from illness, surgery, or prolonged hospitalization. With a focus on restoring strength and improving nutritional status, these services cater to individuals affected by malnutrition, cancer, renal disorders, gastrointestinal conditions, and other complex health concerns.
Tele-Nutrition Support
Our Tele-Nutrition services enable patients to access dietary consultations and follow-ups and offer any changes and inclusions within the existing plan without the need of physical consultation and in patients who have physical constraints to come to hospital.
FAQ’s
What are the advanced tools that help to measure the proportions within the body?
Many hospitals are now equipped with advanced methods like Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) that measures the percentage of body fat , muscle mass, water content, and metabolic rate. Dual-Energy X-ray Absorptiometry (DEXA or DXA) which provides highly accurate data on bone mineral density, fat distribution, and lean muscle mass.
Can we self monitor the daily intake , calories burnt and activity levels?
With the smart wearable gadgets like smart watches and bands, one can easily track their activity, calories burnt, reminder for adequate water intake, track the sleep cycles etc.
Can I follow the diet plans available on fitness apps?
These tools are especially useful for creating awareness about portion sizes, food choices, and daily caloric intake, offering only general guidance, they may not provide customised diet plans considering few very critical aspects like underlying medical condition, nutritional deficiencies, food allergies and concerns with hormonal and gut health.
