One of the major factors in the prevention of complications in orthopedic surgery patients is the maintenance of adequate nutrition. Trauma and elective surgery patients have nutritional requirements that are far greater than is generally realized. The use of nutritional assessment profiles will help to reveal patients who are malnourished or becoming malnourished, and will help to assess nutritional replacement. Protein and calorie malnutrition has a significant effect on wound healing, immunocompetence, and fracture healing. Surgeons should have the nutritional status of their patients in mind at all times and thereby avoid the complications associated with malnutrition.
预防骨科手术患者并发症的主要因素之一是维持充足的营养。创伤患者和择期手术患者的营养需求远远高于人们通常所认识到的水平。使用营养评估概况将有助于发现营养不良或正在发生营养不良的患者，并有助于评估营养补充情况。蛋白质和热量营养不良对伤口愈合、免疫能力和骨折愈合有显著影响。外科医生应时刻关注患者的营养状况，从而避免与营养不良相关的并发症。
