Nutrition status analysis of preoperative patients with esophageal carcinoma by Nutritional Risk Screening-2002 combined with laboratory nutrition index

Objective:To screen the preoperative nutritional risk patients with esophageal carcinoma using Nutritional Risk Screening(NRS) table-2002, comprehensively analyze the nutrition status of the patients and its relative influence factors by NRS table-2002 combined with laboratory detection of nutritional indexes so as to provide evidence for effective nutrition support in clinic.Methods:The preoperative nutritional risks of 62 patients with esophageal carcinoma were investigated using NRS table-2002.The RBP, ALB, Hb and RBC were detected and analyzed.Results:The malnutritional risk in 38 patients(61.29%) were found, the incidence of malnutritional risk in the patients more than 60 years old and patients with dysphagia were 79.49% and 68.63%, respectively.Logistic regression analysis showed that the age, body mass index, dysphagia or not were the related factors of preoperative nutritional risk(P<0.01).The RBP, PAB, ALB and Hb in the nutritional risk patients were lower than those in the non-nutritional risk patients(P<0.01).The difference of erythrocytes between the nutritional risk and non-nutritional risk patients was not statistically significant(P>0.05).Conclusions:The malnutrition risk in the preoperative patients with esophageal carcinoma is high.Medical staff should pay much attention to the dysphasia, equal to or more than 60 years old, physical deterioration and early change of RBP and PAB patients.The timely and effective nutritional support should be provided for the patients.
