Abstract:
Objective To investigate the application effect of two methods,the nutritional risk screening 2002 (NRS 2002) and the mini nutritional assessment short-form (MNA-SF),on nutritional screening in elderly patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage,and to evaluate the applicability of two kinds of methods.Methods Using NRS 2002 and MNA-SF,the malnutrition risk screening was performed in 60 cases of elderly patients with cerebral hemorrhage.Based on malnutrition risk score results,the potential nutritional risks were judged,and the application effectiveness was compared between two nutritional evaluation tools.Results Among 60 cases,there were 59 (98.3%) cases with NRS-2002 score≥3,and 1 (1.7%) case with NRS-2002 score < 3.By contrast,using the MNA-SF analysis,among 60 cases there were 3 (5.0%) cases with score of 12-14,7 (11.7%) cases with score of 8-11,and 50 (83.3%) cases with score of 0-7.No statistically significant difference was found between these two methods for analyzing the malnutrition risk incidence (x2 =1.034,P =0.619).Conclusion The risk grade of malnutrition is very high in elderly patients with spontaneous intracerebral hemorrhage during the period of hospitalization.NRS 2002 and MNA-SF are both applicable for the nutritional screening in the elderly patients with spontaneous cerebral hemorrhage.Clinical application is more convenient,fast and comprehensive with MNA-SF than with NRS 2002.
