Abstract:
Objective:To explore the nutritional risk status and related factors of elderly inpatients.Methods:Using the convenient sampling method, 321 elderly stroke patients who were hospitalized in the neurology department of a ClassⅢ Grade A hospital from April to October 2018 were selected as the research objects for nutritional risk screening. Serum albumin (ALB) , serum prealbumin (PA) and other related nutritional indexes were recorded, and ADL, tooth, cognition, psychology and sleep of the patients were evaluated.Results:A total of 31.5% (101/321) of elderly stroke patients had nutritional risk. Among elderly stroke patients over 70 years old, 13.39% (43/321) had NRS-2002 ≥ 3 points. There were statistically significant differences in the incidence of nutritional risk among elderly stroke patients of different ages and degrees of dysphagia ( P<0.01) . Correlation analysis showed that the nutritional risk of elderly stroke patients was related to swallowing disorder, activity of daily living, intelligent mental state, and depression state ( P<0.05) . Conclusions:The older the elderly stroke patients, the higher the incidence of nutritional risk. Age, dysphagia, activity of daily living, BMI, intelligent mental state and depression are related to nutritional status, which should be paid attention to by medical staff and timely nutritional intervention should be given.
