This study reports about the outcome of NST activities at Anegasaki Hospital, a small scale, long term care hospital. The NST activity was introduced at the hospital after participating in a NST project organized by the Japanese Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition and has brought about remarkable benefits shown below. NST provides optimal nutritional prescription to each patient, and it has brought about a decrease in cases of invasive TPN and an increase in cases of EN in routine clinical activities. These changes additionally brought economic results, an increased revenue in reimbursement rates of health insurances up to June 2006. In EN, the number of patients with serum albumin level not more than 3.0g/dl decreased by administrating the appropriate amount of calories to each patient. Such nutritional improvement simultaneously resulted in a decreased mortality during admission and an increase in patients becoming able to orally eat food and consequently being transferred to the care center attached to our hospital. After starting NST, many patients, who were first bedridden and cared for by TPN or EN, became able to orally eat their food and some of them were even able to leave hospital in good physiological condition. In a hospital which used to witness high mortality rate, these changes are very welcome by the hospital staff.
