We are pleased to announce that the Propionic Acidemia (PROP) Toolkit is now available online. The PROP toolkit consists of 11 case scenarios detailing nutrition intervention for newly diagnosed infants, children, teenagers and pregnant women living with Propionic acidemia.
The PROP toolkit may be found via the following weblink: https://southeastgenetics.org/ngp/toolkit_prop.php
The PROP Toolkit is an international collaborative project, including case contributions from experienced metabolic dietitians working in the US, Canada, and Mexico. We hope the PROP Toolkit case examples as an adjunct to the PROP Nutrition Guidelines will be helpful to metabolic dietitians providing medical nutrition therapy for individuals living with propionic acidemia.
