Abstract：
The long-term effects on people who have had COVID-19 affect nutrition and can be influenced by diet conversely. Specific nutritional guidelines, however, were scarce at the beginning of 2020, and empirical literature was also lacking. Conventional research methodologies needed to be adapted to review the available literature that could be relevant to the United Kingdom and policy documents as well as collect the views of health and care staff. The aim of this paper is to describe the method to develop consensus statements from experts to address the necessary nutritional support and what emerged from this.
A nominal group technique (NGT) was adapted to the virtual world; we purposefully selected a range of professionals (dietitians, nurses, occupational therapists, etc.) and patients with long-term effects of COVID to present them with the most updated evidence and aim to reach key guidelines to address COVID-19 recovery.
We were able to reach consensus statements that were developed and reviewed by relevant healthcare staff at the front line to address the nutritional needs of patients recovering from COVID-19 and those suffering from its long-term effects. This adapted NGT process led us to understand that a virtual repository of concise guidelines and recommendations was needed. This was developed to be freely accessed by both patients recovering from COVID-19 and health professionals who manage them.
We successfully obtained key consensus statements from the adapted NGT, which showed the need for the nutrition and COVID-19 knowledge hub. This hub has been developed, updated, reviewed, endorsed and improved across the subsequent 2 years.

摘要：
背景：对患有COVID-19的人的长期影响会影响营养，反过来也会受到饮食的影响。具体的营养指南，然而,在2020年初很少，实证文献也很缺乏。需要调整传统的研究方法，以审查可能与联合王国相关的现有文献和政策文件，并收集保健和护理人员的意见。本文的目的是描述专家达成共识声明的方法，以解决必要的营养支持以及由此产生的结果。
方法：标称组技术（NGT）适应了虚拟世界；我们有目的地选择了一系列专业人员（营养师，护士,职业治疗师,等。)和具有COVID长期影响的患者向他们提供最新的证据，并旨在达到解决COVID-19康复的关键指南。
结果：我们能够达成共识声明，这些声明由一线相关医护人员制定和审查，以解决从COVID-19康复的患者及其长期影响的患者的营养需求。这种适应的NGT过程使我们了解到需要一个简明指南和建议的虚拟存储库。这是由从COVID-19中康复的患者和管理他们的卫生专业人员自由访问的。
结论：我们成功地从改编的NGT获得了关键的共识声明，这表明需要营养和COVID-19知识中心。这个枢纽已经开发出来了,已更新,reviewed,在随后的两年中得到认可和改进。
