Overview
Brief Summary
This study is a multi-center observational study, led by the Department of Geriatrics, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, with 99 tertiary hospitals as sub-centers. Patients in the geriatrics department from September 2020 to September 2021 are consecutively enrolled .Basic information and nutritional risk assessment is registered and the outcome within 90 days after hospitalization will be recorded.Daily energy, protein and fiber are 75% of the target amount as the standard for feeding.
Detailed Description
This study is a multi-center observational study.Patients in the geriatrics department from September 2020 to September 2021 are consecutively enrolled .The patients' basic information, nutritional assessment, diet and blood biochemical indicators after hospitalization will be registered.The status of nutritional treatment and rehabilitation training and whether there is any adverse outcome when discharged from the hospital will be recorded. Daily energy, protein and fiber are 75% of the target amount as the standard for feeding.The diet, exercise status and adverse outcomes of participants within 90 days after hospitalization will be followed up through outpatient, telephone or remote consultation.Primary endpoint-the impact of nutritional therapy (energy, protein, dietary fiber compliance or failure) on mortality, new infections, falls and readmissions in elderly hospitalized patients within 90 days after hospitalization; secondary endpoints-the change of the nutrition indicators, the physical function and quality of life of the participants within 90 days after hospitalization.

Outcomes
Primary Outcomes
Rate of mortality
Time Frame: within 90 days after hospitalization
all cause mortality
Number of Participants with respiratory, urinary or gastrointestinal infections diagnosed by clinicians
Time Frame: within 90 days after hospitalization
Any infection diagnosed by a formal medical institution.Infections that require a doctor's prescription of antibiotics indicated in the medical records or diagnosis reports provided by the participants, including the respiratory tract, urinary tract, gastrointestinal tract, etc.The report or diagnosis certificate has relevant evidence, for example, the test indicates that the white blood cell is increased or the high-sensitivity C-reactive protein is increased.
Number of Participants with unplanned hospitalization for acute illness
Time Frame: within 90 days after hospitalization
Visits reported by participants because of an acute illness rather than regular visits.Hospital stays longer than 48 hours will be counted, but outpatient visits will not be counted.
Number of Participants with fall
Time Frame: within 90 days after hospitalization
Any falls reported by the participants within 90 days will be recorded. The cause of the fall and whether it is accompanied by a fracture shall be recorded.
Secondary Outcomes
- Number of Participants with the albumin changes(Within 90 days after hospitalization)
- Number of Participants with the physical function changes assessed by katz activity of the daily living（ADL）(Within 90 days after hospitalization)
- Number of Participants with the quality of the life changes according to the EuroQol Five Dimensions Questionnaire（EQ-5D）(Within 90 days after hospitalization)
