Did you know that a person with a burn injury can expend up to twice the amount of energy of a healthy person? That’s why it is vital for burns patients to receive enough calories as they recover.
#RBWH are looking for a superstar research assistant to join the #RBWH Nutrition and Dietetic and Burns Multidisciplinary team to be part of an exciting new project. The research will investigate the use of smart devices to measure calories used in patients with burns. Just like Hannah who is a new graduate currently commencing her PhD in Nutrition and Dietetics, the successful applicant will ideally undertake their PhD as part of the role.

Professor Alison Mudge and her research team at #RBWH have today had their trial of the Eat Walk Engage program published in leading journal JAMA Internal Medicine on delirium.
The research shows that delirium, the most common complication in older Australians in hospital, was reduced by almost half (47 %) in wards that implemented the Eat Walk Engage program.
“Simple strategies such as eating well, moving and exercising and having opportunities for cognitive and social engagement can prevent delirium in almost half of patients – with prevention the best approach, as there is currently no drug treatment for delirium," she said.
“It’s often an invisible complication that leads to longer stays, higher care needs and increased risk for dementia in the future, so our program is an important investment now and for years to come.
“It’s exciting to have our work recognised in this journal as well as being rolled out across Queensland hospitals to help older patients throughout the state.”
Congratulations Alison and team, sharing outcomes of Metro North research with the world!
