Assessment of nutritional status and meal‐related situations among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease in Primary health care – obese patients; a challenge for the future

Abstract: It is challenging to identify the patient's nutritional status, individualize nutritional care and educate obese patients with COPD at PHC centres. It is necessary to develop screening instruments to assess the risk of both obesity and malnutrition.

“…This finding indicates that the prevalence of malnutrition was lower and the risk of malnutrition higher among individuals with schizophrenia, compared with those with other chronic diseases. The prevalence of malnutrition was 25.5%, 32.2%, and 15%, and the risk thereof 26.5%, 24.3%, and 14% among individuals with Parkinson's disease, hemodialysis, and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), respectively. Because approximately 45% of subjects had nutritional problems and patients at risk of malnutrition might become malnourished, nurses in public health centers and community mental health centers should conduct regular, planned the nutritional assessment of community‐dwelling patients with schizophrenia.…”

“…This phenomenon is similar to that in patients with COPD, regarding whom the main focus has been on underweight and low BMI. However, Odencrants and Theander reported that 34% of patients with COPD had a BMI of 26 to 30 kg/m 2 and 26% had a BMI ≥ 30 kg/m 2 ; so, nutritional problems including both obesity and malnutrition should be considered together. Therefore, nurses in public health centers and community mental health centers should carefully assess nutritional status because both obesity and malnutrition are likely to occur in schizophrenia patients.…”

“…In such cases, interventions have entailed increasing calorie consumption without taking the patient's BMI and weight into account. Information must be based on an accurate assessment of the nutritional status of the patient, as well as on their BMI (Odencrants & Theander ).…”

“…The MNA can be used in various settings, including in the community, by general practitioners, during home care, and in outpatient settings, as well as in hospitalized and institutionalized patients (Aggarwal et al, 2013). For example, the MNA was used to assess nutritional status and meal-related situations among patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (Odencrants and Theander, 2013). Similarly, the present study used the MNA to assess the nutritional status of patients treated for oral squamous cell carcinoma.…”
