  • Protein Calorie Malnutrition (PCM), is the most common secondary diagnosis in cancer patients.
  • PCM leads to increased morbidity, mortality, complications, length of hospital stay, and hospital readmissions.
  • PCM can have a drastic, negative effect on overall patient outcomes and Quality of Life (QoL), and be a major contributing factor in patient deaths.
  • In certain cases, you must not only survive your illness, but you must also survive your treatment. Both may contribute to PCM. To give yourself the best chance for success, you must supply your body with the protein it needs. To me, being PROTEIN STABLE is a critical first step in patient care.
