interaction with the ARDC and use of our national research infrastructure and services. The survey will take
approximately 5 minutes and is anonymous. It’s open to anyone who uses our digital research infrastructure
services including Reasearch Link Australia.
We will use the information you provide to improve the national research infrastructure and services we

Infrastructure Strategy (NCRIS) program.
Please take a few minutes to provide your input. The survey closes COB Friday 29 May 2026.

Adequate nutrition is necessary for recovery from illness. 30-40% of hospitalised patients may be malnourished. The critically ill are at higher risk because of increased energy requirements yet often receive less than 50% of required nutritional intake. Adequate nutrition therapy is associated with improved patient outcomes, such as reduced mortality and reduced infectious complications. Robust strategies to implement of evidence-based recommendations for nutrition therapy are required.
Poorly-controlled gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) can have negative outcomes for mother and baby. Nutrition counselling is the first line strategy to manage GDM and can prevent the need for insulin. No Australian GDM nutrition practice guidelines (NPGs) exist, but better outcomes have been shown in America following a evidence-based schedule of dietary counselling. This project will investigate implementation of American NPGs in an Australian setting, using the latest nutrition advice.
