The purpose of this article is to describe the Individual Nutrition Rx (INRx) assessment process and to report preliminary findings on baseline nutritional status, common nutrition problems, and specific individualized interventions. The INRx utilizes a predictive model for participant identification, a systematic assessment process, and evidence-based interventions to improve the nutritional status of at-risk residents. Nineteen percent of participants had abnormal serum albumin levels, and 32.8% had abnormal serum prealbumin levels, indicating diminished protein stores and protein-calorie malnutrition. Frequent nutritional problems identified through the INRx assessment process are appetite change, poor positioning while eating, and oral status concerns.
本文的目的是描述个体营养处方(INRx)评估过程,并报告关于基线营养状况、常见营养问题和特定个体化干预措施的初步研究结果。INRx采用预测模型来识别参与者,通过系统的评估过程和基于证据的干预措施来改善高危居民的营养状况。19%的参与者血清白蛋白水平异常,32.8%的参与者血清前白蛋白水平异常,这表明蛋白质储备减少和蛋白质 - 热量营养不良。通过INRx评估过程发现的常见营养问题包括食欲改变、进食时体位不佳和口腔状况问题。
