Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of personalized nutritional intervention on the nutritional risks and quality of life for patients with prostatic neoplasms and endocrine therapy.Methods Totally 136 patients with prostatic neoplasms who were admitted and treated in the day care ward of Ningbo First Hospital between August and October 2016 were selected, and equally and randomly divided into an observation group and a control group. Patients in the control group received conventional diet nursing, while patients in the observation group were screened for nutritional risks, and received step-by-step and personalized nutritional intervention and followed up by nurses based on the nutritional protocols made by both nurses and nutritionists. Patients in the two groups were then compared in the incidence of nutritional risks, laboratory nutrition indicators and life quality at admission and 8 weeks later.Results There was no statistically significant differences between the incidences of nutritional risks before and after the intervention (χ2=0.052,1.952;P>0.05), the observation group's prealbumin (PA), serum albumin (ALB) and hemoglobin (Hb) were (29.01± 6.37)g/L, (1.20±3.41)g/L and (12.36±1.78)g/dL, respectively, higher than those of the control group (P<0.05); and there were statistically significant differences between the patients in the two groups in their overall health condition, somatic function, role function, cognitive function, emotional function, fatigue,ache, diarrhea and financial difficulty (P<0.05).Conclusions Personalized nutritional intervention helps to improve the nutritional status and life quality of patients with prostatic neoplasms and endocrine therapy.
