Within the hospital setting, the lack of consensus on hospital diet nomenclature has always been a concern, especially among nutritionists, despite advances in the fields of food, dietetics, and nutrition. In order to characterize hospital diet nomenclature based on a literature review, a review of the studies identified in the databases PubMed, Science Direct, Oxford Academic, and Google Scholar was conducted. Studies and guidelines mentioning hospital diet nomenclature were included. A total of 2,460 articles were identified for review, and 50 articles were selected for full review, of which 8 were included for the final analysis. The existence of protocols, guidelines, and manuals addressing the management or use of hospital diet nomenclature was determined, as well as some changes not far removed from what was already established, as reflected in the studies and guidelines reviewed (n=8). Most of the primary studies included in the review consider the use of hospital dietary nomenclatures according to the clinical situation. When evaluating the studies and guidelines, no major changes were observed in the nomenclatures; however, some have moved closer to the CODINUCAT consensus. The implementation of the updates is not reflected in most of the studies in the review, due to the lack of a model or protocol for hospital dietary nomenclatures in most hospitals.
