    Nutritional care providers agreed on essential nutrition knowledge areas. Differences in perceived importance were mainly between dietitians and pharmacists, guiding future education programs.

    Area of Science:

    • Nutrition Science
    • Medical Education
    • Healthcare Professional Development

    Background:

    • Assessing core nutrition knowledge is crucial for effective patient care.
    • Multidisciplinary teams require shared understanding of nutritional principles.
    • Existing nutrition knowledge assessments may not reflect current practice needs.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To evaluate agreement among diverse healthcare professionals on essential nutrition knowledge areas.
    • To identify areas of consensus and divergence in nutrition knowledge importance.
    • To inform the development of standardized nutrition knowledge assessments and continuing education.

    Main Methods:

    • A modified Delphi survey was administered to a stratified random sample of 400 American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (ASPEN) members.

  • Participants included dietitians, nurses, pharmacists, and physicians.
  • Respondents rated 35 nutrition content areas as 'essential,' 'useful,' or 'nonessential' for a proposed knowledge test.

    • Main Results:

    • Consensus was reached on the essentiality of 22 out of 35 nutrition content areas across all disciplines.
    • Significant differences in perceived importance of nutrition knowledge were identified, primarily between dietitians and pharmacists.
    • Chi-square tests revealed systematic variations in how different professional groups prioritized nutrition topics.

    Conclusions:

    • Multidisciplinary nutrition education programs can be guided by areas of strong professional agreement.
    • Targeted educational content may be necessary to address discipline-specific knowledge gaps, particularly between dietitians and pharmacists.
    • These findings support the development of more relevant and effective nutrition knowledge assessments for healthcare providers.
