Abstract



Introduction: The objective of this study is to determine the prevalence of
malnutrition risk (MR)/malnutrition (MN) in cancer patients using MNA.

Methods: This
observational study was conducted with cancer patients in the Izmir Katip
Celebi University Ataturk Training and Research Hospital Medical Oncology
Outpatient Clinic. Demographic data, daily functional status according to the
Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG), nutritional status according to Mini
Nutrition Assessments (MNA) and anthropometric measurements obtained with
TANITA Body Composition Analyzer Model TBF-300 (TANITA) were used in the
evaluation of patients.

Results: The study
enrolled 296 oncology patients. The mean age was 58.34 ± 11.60 years. Two
hundred and eight (70.3%) of the patients were women. The most common three
tumor types were breast tumors (43.2%; n=128); gastrointestinal tract tumors
(33.1%; n=98), genitourinary tract tumors (10.8%: n=32). The mean BMI of the
patients was 27.45 ± 5.75 m2/kg. According to MNA 118 of the patients were in
normal nutritional status (39.9%). 130 of them were at the risk of malnutrition
(43.9%), 48 of them were malnourished (16.2%).







Conclusion: In cancer
patients, the prevalence of malnutrition and malnutrition risk is significantly
high, and this may alter the patient’s life quality and expectancy. Therefore,
the nutritional status of every patient that is diagnosed with cancer should be
assessed in early stages of the disease.

Abstract

Giriş: Bu çalışmanın amacı, kanser
hastalarında malnutrisyon riskini (MR) / malnütrisyon(MN) prevalansını Mini
Nutrisyonel Değerlendirme(Mini Nutrition Assessments (MNA)) testi kullanarak
saptamaktır.

Yöntem: Bu gözlemsel
çalışma, İzmir Katip Çelebi Üniversitesi Atatürk Eğitim ve Araştırma Hastanesi
Tıbbi Onkoloji Polikliniği'nde kanser hastaları ile yürütülmüştür. Hastaların
değerlendirilmesinde demografik veriler, Doğu Kooperatif Onkoloji Grubuna
(ECOG) göre günlük fonksiyonel durum, Mini Nütrisyon Değerlendirmelerine (MNA)
göre beslenme durumu ve TBIF-300 (TANITA) TANITA Vücut Kompozisyonu Analiz
Edici Model ile elde edilen antropometrik ölçümler kullanıldı.

Bulgular: Çalışmaya,
296 onkoloji hastası dâhil edilmiştir. Ortalama yaş 58.34 ± 11.60 yıl idi.
Hastaların 228 (% 70,3) 'i kadındı. En yaygın üç tümör türü meme tümörleri (%
43,2; n = 128); gastrointestinal sistem tümörleri (% 33.1, n = 98),
genitoüriner yol tümörleriydi (% 10,8: n = 32). Hastaların ortalama VKİ'si 27,45
± 5,75 m2 / kg idi. MNA'ya göre hastaların 118(% 39,9)'inin
beslenmesi normaldi.130(% 43,9)'u malnütrisyon riski altında, 48(% 16,2).'i
yetersiz beslenmekteydi







Sonuç: Kanser
hastalarında malnütrisyon ve malnutrisyon riski prevalansı belirgin olarak
yüksektir ve bu durum hastanın yaşam kalitesini ve beklentisini değiştirebilir.
Bu nedenle, kanser teşhisi konan her hastanın beslenme durumu, hastalığın erken
safhalarında değerlendirilmelidir.
