Nutrition in the Hospitalized Elderly

The research aims to study the chemical tests of grape seed oil such as peroxide number, acidity number, saponification number and physical tests such as refractive index, density and smoking point, as well as estimating fatty acids in the oil and manufacturing healthy yoghurt milk by replacing animal fat with grape seed oil and by adding the initiator Lactobacillus bulgaricus, Streptococcus thermophiles. It also studies the changes in the product during storage for 14 days, estimation of peroxide number, acidity, pH, as well as estimation of the total count of bacteria, lactic acid bacteria and E.coli.

“…Hospitalization is a period of acute stress and increased vulnerability that impacts the patients' clinical and emotional status [1][2][3] . One of the most debilitating and highly prevalent complications in the hospital setting is malnutrition, which is defined as a deficiency of intake or uptake of nutrients, leading to altered body composition, function, or clinical outcome.…”

“…In fact, malnutrition is directly related to one factor, which is food intake, through lack of food intake or increased demand for it, poor absorption, or loss of nutrients, or all the mentioned factors together. Thus, malnutrition occurs because of several risk factors (Figure 1) that influence directly or indirectly the food intake through one or plus of the above mechanisms 1,5,13,18 .…”

Introduction: Hospital malnutrition is a common problem among non-communicable diseases' (NCDs) inpatients, and it is related to food intake characteristics. The aim of this study was to determine the current dietary intake characteristics of hospitalized adults with NCDs in Algeria. Methods: The study sample consisted of 105 inpatients. The dietary intake was evaluated using the 24 hours recall method, CIQUAL Table, 2016 was used for nutritional values and Subjective global assessment (SGA) for the nutritional status assessment. Results: The study design responds to a descriptive cross-sectional study carried out on a sample of 105 inpatients. The malnutrition percentage was 44.76% (B/C on SGA). Most consumed food was self-provided (78.09%) and 3.81% of food was hospital-provided. Energy intakes were low with a median of 4805 kJ/day; 24.76% of participants met 100% of their energy requirements while 13.33% met ≥75% of their protein requirements with no significant difference between well-nourished and malnourished patients. Dietary sugar was higher than 10% of total energy, and alpha-linolenic acid was at 0.06% of total energy with severe deficient of vitamins and minerals. Conclusions: Current food supply including non-regulated sources in hospital was not able to meet the dietary requirements of inpatients. Improving hospital nutritional services, supporting patients at mealtimes and nutritional education among patients’ families are solutions to improve patient nutritional status.
