- Peking Union Medical College
- Brief Summary
The impact of nutritional support for the patients at nutritional risk on clinical outcomes and cost-effectiveness.
- Detailed Description
Although it was often to hear that malnutrition ratio in Aisa hospitalized patient was 40%-70% , there was no evidence to elaborate the prevalence of nutritional risk and malnutrition on hospitalized patients of Asia. Also in USA no data for nutritional risk. In 2002, scientists group headed by Kondrup from : European Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition demonstrated that randomized controlled clinical trials showed patients may get benefit from nutrition support when they with nutrition risk. Based on these evidences, a simpler method was established by European Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition in year 2002 in Munich \& it was demonstrated useful to evaluate the appropriate use of nutrition support at present time. This method was named as Nutrition Risk Screening (NRS).
Investigators propose to survey the prevalence of malnutrition \& nutrition risk in large cities' large/middle size hospitalized patients in China, Europe and USA use NRS tool. As well, we also aim to figure out the current nutrition support status in current large/middle size hospitals through this survey.
Investigators also propose to evaluate the cost-effectiveness of parenteral nutrition, enteral nutrition and non-nutritional support, and to examine the clinical outcomes of nutritional support in certain patients at nutritional risk identified by NRS-2002.
For international cooperation, the partners are Professor Kondrup of Europe and Professor Nolan from Johns Hopkins Hospital,there are students from a cooperative project with Johns Hopkins Hospital for Doctor of Philosophy students 2005-2011.

Group Intervention Description Nutritional support therapy group nutritional support All participants in this group will receive proper nutritional support.
- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method The incidence of Infectious complication during the hospital stay A infectious complication was defined as as the presence of recognized pathogens in body tissues that normally are sterile, confirmed by the results of culture and supported by clinical, radiologic or hematologic evidence of infection
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method Total cost amount during the hospital stay The total cost amount was considered to contain 3 items in our study. The first item was the cost of nutrition support, including nutrition solutions, nursing, physician, and other staff supervision of nutrition support preparation, administration, and catheter placement and maintenance. The second item was the cost of the infectious complication.The third item was 'other costs' associated with the hospital admission, calculated from the total costs from which the cost of nutrition support and infectious complications were subtracted.
