Abstract EN
Objective: This study was conducted to estimate the risk of malnutrition during hospitalization in a sample of patients admitted to three hospitals affiliated to Damascus University, and to study the changes in patients’ nutritional status during their hospitalization.
Methods: This study is a descriptive study, which was conducted between 2010 and 2012, using a reference questionnaire, which was filled in with direct interview.
Results: The number of patients participating in the research was 390 patients, and the proportion of male to female was 165/225.
The mean of the age was 48.22±15.582 years.
Calculating the body mass index (BMI) showed that 2.6% of patients had malnutrition (BMI=18.5 kg/m2 or less), and 53.6% of patients had medium and severe risk to develop malnutrition in hospital; that was higher than other international studies.
However there was no significant statistical change between the mean of the weight at admission and the mean of the weight after a week from the first measurement for patients who were hospitalized for more than seven days.
Conclusions: It is necessary to assess the nutritional status of all patients admitted to the hospital, and assess the potential risk to develop malnutrition or getting worse during the period of hospitalization in order to follow-up the patient and follow the proper protocol to the patient’s nutritional status thus keeping patient safety and avoiding the adverse impact of health care.
