About

EvalSel can precisely assess the salt intake of hospitalized patients in nephrology and cardiology or in medical consultation. It can determine salt consumption to the nearest gram.

The objectives of this food frequency questionnaire are to arrive at a precise dietary diagnosis and to quickly identify the dietary errors made by the patients.

EvalSel is useful for doctors to quickly obtain an assessment of the salt consumption of their patients, so they can refer them to dietitians if necessary. It can be used on the day of admission to hospital or during medical follow-ups to know the evolution of their consumption over the long term and improve their care.
