The College of Medicine at the University of Basrah, in cooperation with Abbott Company, organized a scientific symposium on scientific developments in the field of therapeutic nutrition for hospitalized patients, in which Dr. Salah Kazem Musallam gave two lectures on the latest scientific developments in the field of therapeutic nutrition for inpatients, focusing on patients who need surgical intervention and how to reduce complications that may affect them before, during or after the operation.
The symposium included discussions on ways to develop the capabilities of the Department of Health, in cooperation with the College of Medicine, by training scientific staff that can assess the degree of nutrition of the lying patient and discover any defect in it before performing the surgical intervention, and thus reach a safe surgery with the least possible complications.
