“…A high percentage of patients at risk for undernutrition (STAMP ⩾ 2, 51.1%) was observed among the study population, which is similar to the observations in the UK's National Spinal Injuries Centre. 5 There is a definite need to address the nutritional requirements of this special population group in China.…”

“…11,12 If the child was ⩾ 2 years old, their length was measured and 0.7 cm was subtracted to convert it to height. 5 The appetite level 4 (percentage of meals eaten) was assessed by discussion with the parents or caregivers. We used the question as an item of the nutritional risk screening tool, STRONGkids (Screening Tool for Risk on Nutritional Status and Growth), which included 'reduced food intake during the past few days (3 days) before admission (not including fasting for an elective surgical procedure)'.…”

“…Studies have found that almost half of children with SCI (45.5%) are at risk of malnutrition, and the prevalence of overnutrition is high (overweight, 41.1%; obese, 25.5%). 4,5 However, the relationships between nutritional risk and pediatric characteristics after SCI such as age, gender, years since SCI, level of injury, completeness of injury, American Spinal Injury Association Impairment Scale (AIS) and walking ability are unclear.…”

“…7,8 STAMP is intended for use by the nursing staff as a first-line screen, and the validity and reliability of this tool has been confirmed in SCI children. 5 The STAMP incorporates three components, all of which are recognized indices or symptoms of undernutrition: the presence of a clinical diagnosis that has nutritional implications, estimated recent nutritional intake, and differences in weight/height centile chart. 5 In the first step, the diagnosis table on the STAMP website is used to determine whether the child's condition has any nutritional implications, and diseases are categorized into three groups according to the influence on the nutritional status of the child (without nutritional consequence-0 points, potential nutritional consequences-2 points, some nutritional consequences-3 points).…”

Psychological distress is viewed as an emotional condition that involves negative views of the self, others and the environment and is characterized by unpleasant subjective states such as feeling tense, worried, worthless and irritable [3]. These subjective states can reduce the emotional resilience of individuals and impact on their ability to enjoy life and to cope with pain, disappointment and sadness. Psychological distress can be viewed as a continuum in which people can move from experiencing wellbeing to distress and back at various times throughout their lives [4,5]. The following are the medical and cognitive theoretical perspectives of psychological distress. Medical model Pathology is a prevalent perspective of medical model [5,6]. In accordance to medical model psychological distress is considered as an illness in the same classification as whatever other physical sickness, this model uses comparable model in characterizing psychological distress as that utilized by restorative professionals. As such, psychological distress is some type of neurological imperfection in charge of the scattered thinking and conduct, and requires medicinal treatment and consideration [7]. Cognitive theory Cognitive model define psychological distress as the process of negative thinking and perception [8]. This process is reflected in the case distressed patients have in general a negative vision on themselves, their environment and in the future [9]. They consider themselves as nothing valuable, inappropriate and inadequate. Malnutrition Malnutrition has been perceived as a nationwide trouble [10]. Malnutrition is often not identified in hospitalized patients and can unfortunately lead to increased risk for complications such as morbidity, increased length of stay, increased mortality, functional impairment, and economic implications [11-13]. Research survey carried by Norman et al. [14] expressed that malnutrition linked to the predictive entailments of illness. A growing body investigations explored that no changing were found in the prevalence of malnutrition from 1990, in U.S. and the Europe researchers conclude that in hospitals the ratio of malnourished or at nutritional risk about 31%. Morbidity of malnutrition increasing due to some causes in which marred immune functioning and delayed healing of wounds are most common [14]. Only one study have done with In a study conducted by Ma, Poulin, Feldstain & Chasen [15], the researchers found that there is a positive relationship between malnutrition and psychological distress, and malnutrition as a predictor of psychological distress.

Nutrition is an important component in the prevention and treatment of pressure injuries (PIs). The skin is the largest organ of the body, and macronutrients and micronutrients in specific amounts are required to maintain and repair body tissues. The European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel, the National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel, and the Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance Prevention and Treatment of Pressure Ulcers/Injuries: 2019 Clinical Practice Guideline includes nutrition recommendations for PI management. This manuscript identifies the key nutrients required for wound healing, reviews the evidence in the 2019 nutrition recommendations, and translates the recommendations provided into key points to be incorporated into policy and practice that impact patient outcomes.
