What participants receive
What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.
AYMES 'CARDIFF'Dietary supplement
AYMES CARDIFF is a Food for Special Medical Purposes (FSMP) and must, therefore, be used under medical supervision. It is not designed as a sole source of nutrition.
| Study group | Role | What they receive |
|---|---|---|
| AYMES 'CARDIFF' | Experimental | Patients established on an oral nutritional supplement (ONS), requiring nutritional supplementation of at least 300kcal/day will be changed onto an equivalent prescription of AYMES 'CARDIFF' for a period of 30 days. Receives: Dietary Supplement: AYMES 'CARDIFF' |
What is being measured
The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.
Gastro-Intestinal Tolerance when consuming AYMES CARDIFF
To assess gastro-intestinal tolerance of 'CARDIFF' in patients in the community requiring oral nutritional supplementation. Monitoring includes recording the number of any GI complaints via a daily diary.
Measured: 30 days
Secondary outcomes (2)
Acceptability and Palatability of Consuming the Nutritional Supplement: questionnaire
To assess the acceptability of 'CARDIFF' in patients in the community requiring oral nutritional supplementation. At the end of the intervention period an acceptability and preference questionnaire will be completed by the patient in order to seek their opinion on the taste, smell, texture and overall liking of the new supplement drink. A 5 point hedonic scale will be used.
Measured: 30 days
Compliance
To assess the compliance of patients to 'CARDIFF' by daily completion of a compliance diary, comparing consumed versus prescribed amount.
Measured: 30 days
