Estado Nutricional e indicadores de qualidade em terapia nutricional de pacientes hematológicos internados em Hospital Público Universitário do Brasil / Nutritional status ans quality indicators in nutritional therapy of hematological patients hospitalized in Public University Hospital of Brazil

Objetivo: Avaliar o estado nutricional e a prevalência de adequação dos indicadores de qualidade em terapia nutricional (IQTNs) de pacientes hospitalizados na unidade de hematologia. Métodos: Estudo de caráter transversal, retrospectivo e descritivo, realizado no período fevereiro a maio de 2017, no qual foi avaliado o estado nutricional e os IQTNs (1- realização de triagem nutricional até 48 horas de internação, 2- medida de Índice de Massa Corporal (IMC), 3- catabolismo proteico pela circunferência do braço) de 133 pacientes internados na unidade de hematologia do Hospital Universitário da rede pública de saúde em Fortaleza, por meio de informações contidas no banco de dados dos serviços de nutrição. Resultados: A amostra predominante era do sexo feminino (60,9%). A idade média geral foi em torno de 45±16,0 anos. Observou-se que a maioria dos pacientes avaliados foram classificados como eutróficos pelo IMC (41,6%) e circunferência do braço (43,6%); no entanto, de acordo com a triagem nutricional, a maioria dos pacientes internados encontrava- se em risco nutricional (55,3%). Com relação aos IQTNs, observou-se conformidade no indicador 1 e não conformidade nos indicadores 2 e 3. Conclusão: Conclui-se que a maioria dos pacientes eram eutróficos; no entanto, apresentavam risco nutricional. Além disso, O IMC foi o único indicador de qualidade que atingiu a meta proposta. Sendo assim, ressalta-se a importância da avaliação periódica dos outros IQTNs do serviço de nutrição, visto que os pacientes hematológicos merecem atenção especial por apresentarem elevado risco nutricional e necessitarem de cuidados rigorosos

Objective: To evaluate the nutritional status and the adequacy prevalence of quality indicators for nutrition therapy (QINTs) of hospitalized patients in the hematology unit. Methods: A cross-sectional, retrospective and descriptive study was carried out between February and May 2017, in which nutritional status and QINTs were evaluated (1- nutritional screening up to 48 hours of hospitalization, 2- body mass index (BMI), 3- protein catabolism by arm circumference) of 133 patients hospitalized at the University Hospital of the public health service in Fortaleza, through information contained in the database of the nutrition services. Results: The predominant sample was female (60.9%). Overall mean age was around 45 ± 16.0 years. It was observed that the majority of the evaluated patients were classified as eutrophic based on BMI (41.6%) and arm circumference (43.6%); however, according to nutritional screening, most hospitalized patients were at nutritional risk (55.3%). With regard to QINTs, compliance with indicator 1 and nonconformity in indicators 2 and 3 were observed. Conclusions: It is concluded that the majority of patients were eutrophic; however, presented nutritional risk. The BMI was the only quality indicator that met the proposed goal. Therefore, the importance of periodic evaluation of other indicators of quality of nutrition service is emphasized, since hematological patients deserve special attention because they present high nutritional risk and require rigorous care

A short nutritional intervention in a cohort of hematological inpatients improves energy and protein intake and stabilizes nutritional status.

INTRODUCTION: Oncohematological diseases are associated with an important prevalence of malnutrition. AIM: Our aim is to determine if early recognition and treatment of malnourished hematological inpatients can improve their oral intake, nutritional status and reduce the length of hospital stay. METHODS: Prospective 2-year study conducted in a cohort of hematology inpatients. Malnutrition Screening Tool (MST) was carried out on the first day of admission. Patients with a positive screening were recruited to have a complete nutritional evaluation and intervention, following usual clinical practice. Nutritional evaluation was repeated after one week. RESULTS: Six hundred and seventeen hematological patients were screened (37.8% with positive screening). After one week, median diet intake increased from 80% to 90% (p < 0.001), and an increase of 407.36 Kcal (SD 679.37) and 17.58 g of protein (SD 31.97) was also achieved. More patients reached their energy and protein requirements (41.6 vs.% 63.3%, p = 0.009) and nutritional parameters remained stable. A trend to a lower stay (3.5 to 4.5 days less) was detected in the groups of patients who covered their needs. CONCLUSIONS: The implementation of early malnutrition screening and short nutritional interventions improved energy and protein intake, increasing the percentage of patients who meet their requirements and avoiding deterioration of nutritional status.

The effectiveness of a recovery complex optimization in conditions of the sanatorium-resort rehabilitation of patients with chronic pathology by provision of the dietotherapy ration balance on nutrients, the use of natural (of the plant raw material cryopowders in the form of teas and tableted forms) and the "Centrum" synthetic vitamin-mineral complexes, probiotics was substantiated and demonstrated.

By the example of nutrition of patients from sanatorium "Kristall" (the Black Sea coast) an evaluation of patients nutrition in sanatoria and health resorts is made. It is determined, that the standard patients diets (Table N 15, 5, 10) do not differ from the reference ones regarding their calorie content, main food components and energy value. Though insufficient content of vitamins, unsaturated fatty acids and linoleic/linolein acids imbalance is marked.
