营养不良是维持性血透病人常见并发症,约三分之一维持性血液透析患存在营养不良。这种营养不良主要是由于尿毒症或透析不充分引起的食欲下降,摄入不足,以及血透过程中营养物质流失和分解代谢增强等原因所致。目前认为营养不良可引起多种并发症,是严重影响病人生活质量,直接降低病人长期存活率的重要原因之一。因此,加强营养宣传,定期进行营养评估,指导营养治疗,已经成为透析中心医务工作不可或缺的重要工作。 相似文献

Background: This study was designed to determine the prevalence of protein-energy wasting (PEW) and its various types in hemodialysis (HD) patients in Tehran, Iran. Methods: For this cross-sectional study, 291 HD patients were randomly selected. The nutritional status of the patients was determined by subjective global assessment (SGA) and their dietary intakes were assessed using a 4-day dietary recall. In addition, serum high-sensitive C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) was measured. Results: The prevalence of mild-to-moderate and severe PEW based on SGA was 60.5% and 1% in Tehran HD patients, respectively. The prevalence of various types of PEW in HD patients was 20.5% type I (inadequate energy or protein intake without inflammation), 65.5% type IIa (inadequate energy or protein intake with inflammation), and 14% type IIb (adequate energy and protein intake with inflammation). Of the total HD patients with no PEW based on SGA, about 3.5% had type 0 normal nutritional status (adequate energy and protein intake without inflammation), 34% had type I normal nutritional status (inadequate energy or protein intake without inflammation), 55.5% had type IIa normal nutritional status (inadequate energy or protein intake with inflammation), and 7% had type IIb normal nutritional status (adequate energy and protein intake with inflammation). Conclusion: PEW in Tehran HD patients is considerably prevalent and PEW type IIa is the most common type. In addition, HD patients with no PEW based on SGA should also be paid attention because they may be in the early stages of inadequate intake of energy and/or protein and inflammation. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) as a nutrition assessment tool in hemodialysis patients. DESIGN: A cross-sectional observational study assessing the nutritional status of hemodialysis patients. SETTING: Private tertiary Australian hospital. SUBJECTS: Sixty patients, ages 63.9 +/- 16.2 years. INTERVENTION: Scored PG-SGA questionnaire, comparison of PG-SGA score > or =9 with subjective global assessment (SGA), albumin, corrected arm muscle area, and triceps skinfold. RESULTS: According to SGA, 80% of patients were well nourished and 20% of patients were malnourished. Patients classified as well nourished (SGA-A) attained a significantly lower median PG-SGA score compared with those rated as moderately malnourished or at risk of malnutrition (SGA-B). A PG-SGA score > or =9 had a sensitivity of 83% and a specificity of 92% at predicting SGA classification. There were significant correlations between the PG-SGA score and serum albumin, PG-SGA score, and percentage weight loss over the past 6 months. There was no association between PG-SGA score and body mass index or anthropometric measurements. CONCLUSION: The scored PG-SGA is an easy-to-use nutrition assessment tool that allows quick identification of malnutrition in hemodialysis patients. 相似文献

OBJECTIVE: To determine the prevalence of risk for hospitalization in hemodialysis (HD) patients and examine the impact of oral kilocalorie and protein supplementation in two Midwestern outpatient dialysis centers. DESIGN/SETTING: This was a prospective intervention study conducted at 2 outpatient dialysis centers in the Midwest. PATIENTS: The inclusion criteria for patients were (1) more than 18 years of age, (2) receiving HD 3 times per week, and (3) a functioning gastrointestinal tract. INTERVENTION: Patients who met study criteria and signed an informed consent form were screened using the hemodialysis prognostic nutrition index (HD-PNI) to determine risk for hospitalization. Patients determined to be at high risk (HD-PNI > or =0.8) were included in the treatment group, and patients at low risk did not receive the intervention. They followed their normal nutritional regimen. The intervention group received an oral supplement daily for 3 months. The team of the dietitian, patient, researcher, and physician determined the type of oral supplements based on patient needs and preferences. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Before and after HD-PNI, 24-hour recall and subjective global assessments (SGA) were conducted to assess risk for hospitalization, dietary intake, and nutritional status, respectively. RESULTS: A total of 117 patients were screened, with a total of 26 in the treatment group (high risk) and 91 in the low-risk group. Baseline SGA distribution was 23% for patients with low nutritional risk (group A), 64% for those with moderate nutritional risk (group B), and 13% for those with severe nutritional risk (group C). When the HD-PNI scores of the treatment group were analyzed using paired t-tests, significant differences were observed between pre- and post-HD-PNI mean scores, 1.92 +/- 1.16 and 1.42 +/- 1.59, (P <.05) respectively. When comparing the responders versus the nonresponders by the dependent and independent variables (pre- and post-HD-PNI, SGA, kilocalorie intake, diabetic status, and presence of hypertension) only post-HD-PNI score was significantly different (0.96 +/- 1.69 and 2.20 +/- 1.09, respectively). CONCLUSION: This study succeeded in showing that 22% of the hemodialysis patients in 2 Midwestern centers were at an increased risk for hospitalization. Furthermore, dietitian intervention with oral kilocalorie and protein supplements decreased the patients' hemodialysis prognostic nutrition index scores and thereby decreased the patients' risks for hospitalization. 相似文献

Is subjective global assessment a reliable measure of nutritional status in hemodialysis? 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
OBJECTIVE: Subjective global assessment (SGA) is recommended in US and European guidelines for the nutritional assessment of patients with end-stage renal failure (ESRF). SGA identifies patient groups with abnormal nutritional parameters, but may fail to identify patients with malnutrition as identified by other techniques, such as total body nitrogen. We sought to compare SGA with a composite nutritional score. METHODS: HD patients were assessed by SGA, anthropometry, 3-day food diary, serum albumin, Kt/V urea, and normalized protein catabolic rate (nPCR). A composite nutritional score was derived from SGA, body mass index, percent of reference weight, triceps skinfold, midarm muscle circumference, and serum albumin. RESULTS: In 72 HD patients an abnormal SGA identified a patient group with reduced midarm circumference, midarm muscle circumference and serum creatinine and an increased composite nutritional score. However, overlap of nutritional scores was considerable between the normal and abnormal SGA groups, suggesting that SGA misclassified a large number of subjects. Serum albumin correlated with C-reactive protein (r = -0.473, P <.0001), not nutritional status. The composite nutritional score correlated with all of its components except for serum albumin. CONCLUSIONS: SGA may not reliably identify hemodialysis patients with abnormal nutrition. Serum albumin is related to inflammation and not to nutrition status. 相似文献

The nutritional status of 35 patients on continuous ambulatory peritoneal dialysis (CAPD) was assessed by the traditional methods of dietary history and anthropometric measurements, and was compared with simultaneous measurements of dietary protein intake (DPI) calculated from urea generation rate and total-body nitrogen (TBN) assessment by prompt neutron activation analysis (PNAA). DPI as determined by dietary recall was significantly higher than calculated DPI (1.04 +/- 0.42 v 0.84 +/- 0.28 g/kg/d; P less than 0.001). Anthropometric measurements did not differ significantly from the predicted normal values for sex, height, and age. However, PNAA measurements of TBN demonstrated significant nitrogen depletion, being 88.2% of normal for males (P less than 0.001) and 87.5% of normal for females (P less than 0.002); TBN correlated significantly with DPI calculated from urea generation rate (P less than 0.05). Assessment of these 35 patients 17.5 +/- 4.4 months later, demonstrated that patients who died or suffered serious morbidity requiring transfer from CAPD (n = 10) had significantly lower TBN than those who remained on CAPD or underwent successful renal transplantation (n = 25): 80.0% v 93.2% of normal (P less than 0.01). No difference in anthropometric measurements was observed between the two groups of patients. Eleven patients on maintenance home or satellite hemodialysis underwent identical dietary, anthropometric, and TBN assessments and results were similar to those obtained in the CAPD population, although no correlation with calculated DPI and TBN was observed.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Background. Malnutrition and abnormal inflammatory markers are prominent features of the uremic syndrome, but associations and repercussions are somewhat controversial. Objective. To determine nutritional and clinical profile of hemodialysis patients, aiming at potential diagnostic recommendations for stable subjects with elevated C-reactive protein. Material and Method. Design: Prospective observational cross-sectional clinical study in a stable chronic hemodialysis population; Setting: Renal and Nutritional Service of a mid-size charity academic hospital; Patients: Subjects (n = 44) were analyzed concerning nutritional status and C-reactive protein. Some displayed acute infections (Group I, n = 9) and others did not (Group II, n = 35). Age was 47.0 ± 16.9 years with 63.6% males. Body mass index (BMI) was 22.2 ± 3.9 kg/m2, calorie intake was 1262 ± 601 kcal/day (20.7 ± 6.7 kcal/kg/day), and protein ingestion was 74.3 ± 16.6 g protein/day (1.2 g/kg/day); Intervention: No nutritional supplement or artificial modality of alimentation was employed in this series; Main outcome measures: Subjective global assessment and C-reactive protein. Results. Malnutrition estimated by subjective global assessment (SGA) was very common (>90%), despite acceptable BMI and serum albumin. C-reactive protein was moderately elevated in 40.9% and was positively associated with SGA and negatively with plasma proteins. Comorbidities were associated positively with extracellular water and negatively with reactance (bioimpedance). When infected versus non-infected cases were analyzed, 100% of the former displayed high CRP concentrations in contrast with 22.9% of remaining patients. Conclusions. 1) Malnutrition profile was rather unique, with relatively favorable objective findings (body mass index, serum albumin) and more deranged SGA; 2) Bioimpedance analysis suggested that phase angle could be used as an indicator of nutritional status; 3) C-reactive protein was negatively associated with plasma proteins; 4) Infected subjects, although few and displaying moderate clinical troubles, were responsible for most C-reactive protein determinations above 8 mg/L; 5) Investigation of occult infectious foci is advised in these circumstances. 相似文献
