Filter by:The research team developed the Nutrition Support Assessment Tool (NSAT) that incorporates key patient life information (e.g., ability to cook, access to refrigerator/stove, medical conditions and nutritional status) to facilitate individualized nutrition referral. The overall goal of this study is to refine and test the NSAT as a systematic approach to provide individualized nutrition needs screening and referral for patients being discharged from the acute care setting at Jefferson Health. The investigators hypothesize the NSAT will be successful in identifying individualized nutrition referrals that are deemed acceptable and appropriate by enrolled participants.
The purpose of this study to design a board game that will enable primary school children to recognize foods by enabling them to distinguish between healthy and unhealthy foods by going beyond the traditional education patterns and to compare the effects of this board game-based nutrition education intervention on children's behaviors, self-efficacy, and attitudes with the control group in which no intervention was made.
This multicenter retrospectively observational cohort study was conducted on participants with histologically confirmed gastric and colorectal cancer who underwent radical surgery in 11 medical centers in China from August 1, 2015, to June 31, 2018. Baseline clinicopathologic data and nutritional status assessments including Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 (NRS 2002) score and Patient-generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) rating were collected. Variables will be screened using the least absolute shrinkage and selection operator (LASSO) regression model and Cox regression analysis. Internal and external validations will be performed via the receiver operating curve (ROC), the area under the curve (AUC), the concordance index (C-index), calibration plots, decision curve analysis (DCA), and Five folds cross-validation by 200 times.
The purpose of this study is to test the accuracy of the Nutrition Artificial Intelligence in the Openfit app during meals in a controlled laboratory setting
This study was a double-blind randomized controlled trial conducted to assess the effectiveness of high protein liquid dietary supplementation in malnourished hospitalized patients. The patients were assessed for their nutritional status based on ESPEN 2015 criteria. Patients who experienced malnutrition will be divided into 2 groups, namely the control group which was given a normal protein liquid diet, while the intervention group was given high protein liquid diet supplementation as much as 2 bottles (200 mL) per day for 7-10 days. Furthermore, the nutritional status of the patient was assessed.
Ultrasonography of Rectus Femoris and Anterior Tibialis muscles for nutritional assesment in cirrhotic patients undergoing major abdominal surgery
Nutritional status in critically ill pediatric patients is considered a fundamental prognostic factor in terms of mortality, morbidity, complications and outcome. Many studies report how predictive equations most commonly applied are inaccurate, therefore under or over estimating the body energy requirements. For this reason, actual measurement of resting energy expenditure (REE) through indirect calorimetry (IC) is considered to be a better approach. Currently, IC is not validated during the use of non-invasive ventilation. Aim of the present study is to validate the measurement of REE with IC in pediatric patients undergoing non-invasive ventilation through a single-limb circuit with intentional leak.
It is a study to evaluate the relationship between preoperative nutritional assessment and clinical outcomes and to explore the effect of preoperative nutritional support on clinical outcomes in patients after abdominal operation.
Dosing of nutrition in PICUs is mainly based on patient weight and assumptions on clinical status. There is however poor correlation between these calculations and actual energy consumption measured with indirect calorimetry (IC). Available equipment for IC has however been too cumbersome to use in daily clinical practice. Of relative new date is IC integrated in modern ventilators. This functionality is easy to use, but we do not know if the results are reliable for children. This study is a method comparison study comparing measurements done with SensorMedics Vmax ("gold standard") vs GE Carescape (modern ventilator with Integrated IC) in children undergoing intensive care treatment.
This is a randomized controlled trial to assess the impact of a novel fruit and vegetable mobile phone application on fruit and vegetable intakes, knowledge and attitudes.
