dagopname

Dagopname is a Dutch term that combines dag (day) and opname (intake, admission, or recording). In everyday usage, it denotes either daily intake of something or the act of recording that intake on a given day. The meaning can vary depending on context, but the common thread is a focus on what is taken in or documented within a 24-hour period.

In healthcare settings, dagopname commonly refers to documenting a patient’s medications or treatments administered during a single day, including dose, timing, route, and adherence. This documentation supports treatment tracking, dosing decisions, and patient safety, and it may appear in medication charts, treatment plans, or hospital administration records. The term is often used to describe the process of capturing daily medication intake rather than the act of prescribing it.

In nutrition and dietetics, dagopname can describe a daily food diary or intake log kept by patients or clients to monitor energy and nutrient consumption. Such daily records help assess dietary patterns, identify gaps, and inform dietary interventions or counseling.

Outside clinical use, the term may surface in operational or research contexts to indicate daily logs of inputs, outputs, or data collection activities. Usage and interpretation of dagopname can vary by region and institution, and more specific expressions (for example, medication intake or dietary day log) are sometimes preferred to ensure clarity.
