Usual Protein Intake Amount and Sources of Nursing Home Residents with (Risk of) Malnutrition and Effects of an Individualized Nutritional Intervention: An enable Study.

ABSTRACT: Nursing home (NH) residents with (risk of) malnutrition are at particular risk of low protein intake (PI). The aim of the present analysis was (1) to characterize usual PI (total amount/day (d) and meal, sources/d and meal) of NH residents with (risk of) malnutrition and (2) to evaluate the effects of an individualized nutritional intervention on usual PI. Forty residents (75% female, 85 ± 8 years) with (risk of) malnutrition and inadequate dietary intake received 6 weeks of usual care followed by 6 weeks of intervention. During the intervention phase, an additional 29 ± 11 g/d from a protein-energy drink and/or 2 protein creams were offered to compensate for individual energy and/or protein deficiencies. PI was assessed with two 3-day-weighing records in each phase and assigned to 4 meals and 12 sources. During the usual care phase, mean PI was 41 ± 10 g/d. Lunch and dinner contributed 31 ± 11% and 32 ± 9% to daily intake, respectively. Dairy products (median 9 (interquartile range 6-14) g/d), starchy foods (7 (5-10) g/d) and meat/meat products (6 (3-9) g/d) were the main protein sources in usual PI. During the intervention phase, an additional 18 ± 10 g/d were consumed. Daily PI from usual sources did not differ between usual care and intervention phase (41 ± 10 g/d vs. 42 ± 11 g/d, p = 0.434). In conclusion, daily and per meal PI were very low in NH residents with (risk of) malnutrition, highlighting the importance of adequate intervention strategies. An individualized intervention successfully increased PI without affecting protein intake from usual sources.

An Individualised Nutritional Intervention Concept for Nursing Home Residents with or at Risk of Malnutrition: An enable Study.

Project description:Dietary intake and requirements in nursing home (NH) residents vary individually, but concepts for individualised interventions are currently lacking. Therefore, we present an individualised modular nutritional intervention concept for NH residents with (risk of) malnutrition and describe its application and acceptability. Three enrichment modules-a sweet and a savoury protein cream (40 g, 125 kcal, 10 g protein) and a protein-energy drink (250 mL, 220 kcal, 22 g protein)-were offered to residents of two German NHs single or in combination in five levels of enrichment from level 0 (no enrichment) to 4 (all enrichment modules) to compensate for individual energy and protein deficiencies. Residents with chewing and/or swallowing difficulties received reshaped instead of usual texture-modified meals. The intervention concept was applied to 55 residents (Mean age of 84 ± 8 years, 76.0% female, 25.5% malnutrition). Despite (risk of) malnutrition, 18.2% received no enrichment (level 0). Level 1 was allocated to 10.9%, level 2 to 27.3%, level 3 to 20.0% and level 4 to 23.6% of the residents. 32.7% received reshaped texture-modified meals (RTMM). Participants consuming RTMM were more often assigned to level 4 than residents receiving usual meals (38.8% vs 16.2%). We proposed and successfully applied an individualised modular nutritional intervention concept to NH residents with (risk of) malnutrition. In the next step, the effects of the concept and its transferability to other NHs need to be demonstrated.

Predictors of incident malnutrition-a nutritionDay analysis in 11,923 nursing home residents.

Project description:Background/objectivesMalnutrition (MN) in nursing home (NH) residents is associated with poor outcome. In order to identify those with a high risk of incident MN, the knowledge of predictors is crucial. Therefore, we investigated predictors of incident MN in older NH-residents.Subjects/methodsNH-residents participating in the nutritionDay-project (nD) between 2007 and 2018, aged ≥65 years, with complete data on nutritional status at nD and after 6 months and without MN at nD. The association of 17 variables (general characteristics (n = 3), function (n = 4), nutrition (n = 1), diseases (n = 5) and medication (n = 4)) with incident MN (weight loss ≥ 10% between nD and follow-up (FU) or BMI (kg/m2) < 20 at FU) was analyzed in univariate generalized estimated equation (GEE) models. Significant (p < 0.1) variables were selected for multivariate GEE-analyses. Effect estimates are presented as odds ratios and their respective 99.5%-confidence intervals.ResultsOf 11,923 non-malnourished residents, 10.5% developed MN at FU. No intake at lunch (OR 2.79 [1.56-4.98]), a quarter (2.15 [1.56-2.97]) or half of the meal eaten (1.72 [1.40-2.11]) (vs. three-quarter to complete intake), the lowest BMI-quartile (20.0-23.0) (1.86 [1.44-2.40]) (vs. highest (≥29.1)), being between the ages of 85 and 94 years (1.46 [1.05; 2.03]) (vs. the youngest age-group 65-74 years)), severe cognitive impairment (1.38 [1.04; 1.84]) (vs. none) and being immobile (1.28 [1.00-1.62]) (vs. mobile) predicted incident MN in the final model.Conclusion10.5% of non-malnourished NH-residents develop MN within 6 months. Attention should be paid to high-risk groups, namely residents with poor meal intake, low BMI, severe cognitive impairment, immobility, and older age.

Beneficial Effects of Oral Nutrition Supplements on the Nutritional Status and Physical Performance of Older Nursing Home Residents at Risk of Malnutrition.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to compare the effects of nutritional supplement drinks (NSDs) and nutritional education (NE) on the nutritional status and physical performance of older nursing home residents who were at risk of malnutrition. This study was a clustered, randomized, parallel, multi-center clinical trial, with 107 participants more than 65 years old and at risk of malnutrition recruited from several nursing homes in this study. Participants were divided into two groups: an NE group (n = 50) and an NSD group (n = 57). The NE group was given NE by a dietitian, while the NSD group was provided with two packs of NSD except receiving NE (Mei Balance, Meiji Holdings, Tokyo, Japan) per day as a snack between meals and before bed. Anthropometric data, blood pressure, nutritional status, blood biochemical biomarkers, and physical performance were measured before and after 12-week interventions. After 12 weeks of NE combined with NSD intervention, body weight, body-mass index, the mini nutritional assessment-short form (MNA-SF) score, walking speed, and SF-36 questionnaire score were improved in older nursing home residents at risk of malnutrition.

Impact of Cognition and Handfeeding Assistance on Nutritional Intake for Nursing Home Residents.

Project description:In nursing homes (NHs), residents are at risk for malnutrition and weight loss. The purpose of this secondary data analysis was to examine the impact of resident cognitive status and level of feeding assistance provided by NH staff on resident's daily nutritional intake and body weight. As part of a large, multisite clinical trial (N = 786), residents with and without dementia were examined according to level of feeding assistance required during mealtimes (independent, set-up only, needs help eating) over a 21-day period. Outcomes analyzed were percent of meal intake by meal type (breakfast, lunch, dinner) and overall daily intake (meals + snacks/supplements). Residents with dementia who required meal set-up assistance had significantly lower meal intake for all three meals. Residents without dementia requiring meal set-up assistance experienced significantly lower intake for breakfast and dinner, but not lunch. When snacks and supplements were offered between meals, residents with dementia consumed approximately 163 additional calories/day, and residents without dementia consumed approximately 156 additional calories/day. This study adds new evidence that residents at greatest risk for low intake are those who are only provided set-up assistance for meals and/or have cognitive impairment.

Applications of the new ESPEN definition of malnutrition and SARC-F in Chinese nursing home residents.

Project description:We aimed to compare the predictive capacity of malnutrition, sarcopenia, and malnutrition combined with sarcopenia for mortality in nursing home residents. We conducted a prospective study in four nursing homes in China. Nutrition status and sarcopenia were measured according to the new European Society of Clinical Nutrition and Metabolism (ESPEN) definition and SARC-F, respectively. The study population was divided into four groups: malnutrition with sarcopenia (MN+/SA+), malnutrition without sarcopenia (MN+/SA-), sarcopenia without malnutrition (MN-/SA+), and normal nutrition without sarcopenia (MN-/SA-). The participants were followed up for 12 months. We included 329 participants. Thirty-eight participants (11.6%) had MN+/SA+, 38 participants (11.6%) had MN+/SA-, and 93 participants (28.3%) had MN-/SA+. The 1-year mortality was 18.3%, 21.5%, 18.4%, and 47.4% in the MN-/SA-, MN-/SA+, MN+/SA-, and MN+/SA+ groups, respectively. Compared to participants with MN-/SA-, participants with MN+/SA+ were at a significantly higher risk of mortality (adjusted hazard ratio [HR]: 3.19, 95% confidence interval [CI] 1.71-5.95); however, MN-/SA+ (adjusted HR: 1.24, 95% CI 0.69-2.22) and MN+/SA- (adjusted HR: 0.95, 95% CI 0.41-2.19) were not predictors of mortality. In conclusion, the coexistence of malnutrition and sarcopenia is a significant predictor of mortality in a study population of Chinese nursing home residents.

Chronic Dehydration in Nursing Home Residents.

Project description:Chronic dehydration mainly occurs due to insufficient fluid intake over a lengthy period of time, and nursing home residents are thought to be at high risk for chronic dehydration. However, few studies have investigated chronic dehydration, and new diagnostic methods are needed. Therefore, in this study, we aimed to identify risk factors for chronic dehydration by measuring serum osmolality in nursing home residents and also to evaluate whether examining the inferior vena cava (IVC) and determining the IVC collapsibility index (IVC-CI) by ultrasound can be helpful in the diagnosis of chronic dehydration. A total of 108 Japanese nursing home residents aged ≥65 years were recruited. IVC measurement was performed using a portable handheld ultrasound device. Fifteen residents (16.9%) were classified as having chronic dehydration (serum osmolality ≥295 mOsm/kg). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that chronic dehydration was associated with dementia (odds ratio (OR), 6.290; 95% confidential interval (CI), 1.270-31.154) and higher BMI (OR, 1.471; 95% CI, 1.105-1.958) but not with IVC or IVC-CI. Cognitive function and body weight of residents should be considered when establishing a strategy for preventing chronic dehydration in nursing homes.

[Nursing home-sensitive conditions and approaches to reduce hospitalization of nursing home residents].

Project description:BackgroundInterventions to reduce potentially risky hospitalizations among nursing home residents are highly relevant for patient safety and quality improvement. A catalog of nursing home-sensitive conditions (NHSCs) grounds the policy recommendations and interventions.MethodsIn two previous research phases, an expert panel developed a catalog of 58 NHSCs using an adapted Delphi-procedure (the RAND/UCLA Appropriateness Method). This procedure was developed by the North American non-profit Research and Development Organisation (RAND) and clinicians of the University of California in Los Angeles (UCLA). We present the third phase of the project focused on the development of interventions to reduce NHSCs starting with an expert workshop. The workshop results were then evaluated by six experts from related sectors, supplemented, and systematically used to produce recommendations for action. Possible implementation obstacles were considered and the time horizon of effectiveness was estimated.ResultsThe recommendations address communication, cooperation, documentation and care competence as well as facility-related, financial, and legal aspects. Indication bundles demonstrate the relevance for the German healthcare system. To increase effectiveness, the experts advise a meaningful combination of individual recommendations.DiscussionBy optimizing multidisciplinary communication and cooperation, combined with an- also digital - expansion of the infrastructure and the creation of institution-specific and legal prerequisites as well as remuneration structures, an estimated 35% of all hospitalizations, approximately 220,000 hospitalizations for Germany, could be prevented. The implementation expenditure could be refinanced by avoided hospitalization savings amounting to 768 million euros.

Association between traditional nursing home quality measures and two sources of nursing home complaints.

Project description:To test for an association between traditional nursing home quality measures and two sources of resident- and caregiver-derived nursing home complaints.Nursing home complaints to the North Carolina Long-Term Care Ombudsman Program and state certification agency from October 2002 through September 2006 were matched with Online Survey Certification and Reporting data and Minimum Data Set Quality Indicators (MDS-QIs).We examine the association between the number of complaints filed against a facility and measures of inspection violations, staffing levels, and MDS-QIs.One observation per facility per quarter is constructed by matching quarterly data on complaints to OSCAR data from the same or most recent prior quarter and to MDS-QIs from the same quarter. One observation per inspection is obtained by matching OSCAR data to complaint totals from both the same and the immediate prior quarter.There is little relationship between MDS-QIs and complaints. Ombudsman complaints and inspection violations are generally unrelated, but there is a positive relationship between state certification agency complaints and inspection violations.Ombudsman and state certification agency complaint data are resident- and caregiver-derived quality measures that are distinctive from and complement traditional quality measures.
