eating moderate amount of lean meats, poultry, and eggs; keeping fat intake

Nutritional treatment for diverticulitis includes a moderate- or low-residue diet
until the infection subsides. Afterward, prescribing a high-fiber diet for
chronic diverticula problems ensues. A patient with a gastric residual volume
of 500 mL needs to have the feeding withheld and reassessed for tolerance to
feedings. All the rest are normal and expected and do not require follow-up.
Patients manage irritable bowel syndrome by increasing fiber, reducing fat,
avoiding large meals, and avoiding lactose or sorbitol-containing foods for
susceptible individuals. Initiate consultation with a speech-language
pathologist for swallowing exercises and techniques to improve swallowing
and reduce risk of aspiration for a patient with dysphagia.
