Nutrition support in Amsterdam:

Focus on protein!


The Academic Medical Center is one of the two university hospitals in Ams­terdam. In the beginning of the ’90-s the nutrition support team (NST) started and defined optimal nutrition for adults being the intake of 1.5 grams of protein per kg. This view on nutrition, propagated by the leader of the team, Prof. Dr. Hans Sauerwein, caused a clinical revolution in Dutch clinical nutrition. Thinking in terms of energy and protein need in relation to body weight instead of thinking in terms of absolute amounts became gold standard in the Netherlands. The words spread all over the country and nowadays protein intake is one of the indicators of good clinical practice in nutritional support of malnourished or hospitalized patients as stated by the government. 

We are connected to all major nutri­tion groups in the Netherlands:

NESPEN (dutch PEN – group), Nutrition Support Teams, Nutrition Support Nurses Group, Malnutrition Steering Committee and internationally related to ESPEN, especially the HAN group, BAPEN and ASPEN. We also collaborate with the university hospital of Groningen for small bowel transplantation.
