Medical - Nutrition / Bone Augmentation Surgery
German term or phrase: Ernährungslage
"Diese Maßnahme ermöglicht einerseits eine optimierte Weichteilrekonstruktion, eine sichere Ernährungslage für die Knochenblöcke und eine volumenkonstante Weichgewebsaugmentation, weil das Transplantat palatinal gestielt bleibt."

From a text about bone augmentation surgery. I don't understand what they mean by "Ernährungslage" here. TIA for your help.

I don't like "nourishment supply", but NUTRITIONAL supply is good and gets a lot of search engine hits. "Nourishment supply" hardly gets any in relation to this subject. But you get the points for putting me on the right track. Thanks also to avantix for a helpful peer comment.
