Factors associated with patient weight loss and prescribed diet during hospitalization
OBJETIVO: Avaliar a perda de peso ,dieta prescrita, e o status nutricional em pacientes hospitalizados, bem como seus fatores associados; METODOS: perda de peso durante a hospitalização, status nutricional, tipo de doença, e dieta prescrita foram investigados em um estudo retrospectivo em 621 pacientes hospitalizados.Os testes de Qui-quadrado, Fisher, Mann- Whitney e Krusskal-Wallis foram usados para analise estatistica. Para identificação dos fatores associadoscom perda de peso, foi utilizado analise de regressão logistica. O nivel de significãncia adotado foi de 5%; RESULTADOS: Os pacientes com perda de peso durante a hospitalização foram associados com maior tempo de internação (p<0,0001;OR=1.052;95% CI= 1.030 a 1.073), desnutrição pela avaliação global subjetiva (p=0,0081;OR=3.177;95% CI=1.351 a 7.469) e neoplasias digestivas(p=0,0407;OR=2.410;95% CI=1.038 a 5.597); CONCLUSÃO: Perda de peso durnte a hsopitalização foi associado com neoplasias, doenças digestivas, desnutrição e maior tempo de internação.

Abstract:
Objective: the aim of this study was to assess weight loss, diet prescribed, and nutritional status in hospitalized patients, as well as their associated factors.
Methods: weight loss during hospitalization, nutritional status, disease type, and prescribed diet were investigated in a retrospective study in 621 hospitalized patients. The chi-squared, Fisher’s, Mann-Whitney, and Kruskal-Wallis tests were used for statistical analysis. To identify factors associated with weight loss a logistic regression analysis was performed. The significance level adopted for statistical tests was 5%.
Results: patients who experienced weight loss during hospitalization were associated with longer hospital stays (p < 0.0001; OR = 1.052; 95 % CI = 1.030 to 1.073), malnourishment according to the subjective global assessment (p = 0.0358; OR = 1.520; 95 % CI = 1,028 to 2,248), digestive disorders (p = 0.0081; OR = 3.177; 95 % CI = 1.351 to 7.469), and digestive neoplasms (p = 0.0407; OR = 2.410; 95 % CI = 1.038 to 5.597).
Conclusion: weight loss during hospitalization was associated with neoplasms, digestive diseases, malnutrition, and length of stay. -
