Abstract
Introduction: The aim was to assess the nutritional status of geriatric patients and to determine the suitability of used different malnutrition screening measures. Methods: 111 geriatric in-patients of Kaunas Clinical Hospital Geriatric Department were enrolled. The MNA, MNA-SF, and NRS 2002 questionnaires were used. The diagnosis and stage of malnutrition were determined based on Global Leadership Initiative on Malnutrition (GLIM) Criteria. Pearson coefficient, t-test, and Mann- Whitney U test were used. Results: 67.6% of patients were women, mean age was 81.3±7.3 years. Using the MNA, malnutrition and the risk of malnutrition were found to be 8.7 and 61.2% respectively. The average score was 21.8±3.9. Using the MNA-SF, malnutrition was found to be 25.5%,and the risk of malnutrition was found to be 46.9%, with an average score of 9.8±2.9. Malnutrition was found in 46.8% of patients using the NRS 2002 scale, with a mean score of 2.5±0.7. Moderate malnutrition based on phenotypic and etiological diagnostic GLIM criteria was found in 20.0%, severe malnutrition—in 11.4% of subjects. The sensitivity of the MNA and MNA-SF questionnaires was 97%, and the specificity was 42 and 46% respectively. The sensitivity of the NRS 2002 questionnaire was 85%, and the specificity was 71%. Conclusions: The prevalence of malnutrition among geriatric patients was determined using different malnutrition screening questionnaires— the results differed significantly. Based on GLIM criteria, malnutrition was found in 29.7% of geriatric in-patients. The MNA and MNA-SF were the most sensitive in diagnosing malnutrition, but NRS 2002 was the most specific.
