Malnutrition and depleted muscle stores adversely affect bladder cancer patients and contribute to poorer outcomes. These nutrition-related problems are often not addressed, in part because they are not being identified with screening and assessment tools. In this essay, we discuss validated nutrition screening and assessment tools such as the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment; however, each healthcare team must decide on the one which will work best for their clinic. Patients with bladder cancer may be at risk for specific nutrient deficiencies which should be monitored and corrected to improve outcomes and overall health.
营养不良和肌肉储存量减少会对膀胱癌患者产生不利影响,并导致更差的治疗结果。这些与营养相关的问题往往没有得到解决,部分原因是它们没有通过筛查和评估工具被发现。在本文中,我们讨论了经过验证的营养筛查和评估工具,如患者主观整体评估;然而,每个医疗团队都必须决定哪种工具最适合他们的诊所。膀胱癌患者可能存在特定营养素缺乏的风险,应进行监测和纠正,以改善治疗结果和整体健康状况。
