Gastrointestinal Cancer

Brief summary

The goal of this clinical trial was to compare the effects of different nutritional support methods based on nutritional risk screening on postoperative nutritional status in patients with gastrointestinal tumors.The main question it aims to answer is that different types of nutrition can improve the nutritional status of patients with different nutritional status;Long-term dietary interventions for patients with poor nutrition can make cancer patients better able to tolerate surgery and chemotherapy and improve their quality of life.The intervention group received nutrition + exercise + psychological intervention upon admission, routine parenteral and enteral nutrition support after operation, and continued nutrition + exercise + psychological intervention after discharge.The control group received routine parenteral nutrition support in the department after surgery, and the patients and their families were given diet education during hospitalization.

Detailed description

Purpose: The investigators conducted nutritional risk screening for patients with gastrointestinal tumors, gave different nutritional support methods to patients with different nutritional status, and analyzed the changes of various nutritional indexes of patients before and after nutritional intervention. Methods: A total of 302 patients with gastrointestinal tumors admitted to the First Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from July 2021 to June 2023 were selected.All patients underwent nutritional risk screening after admission and were divided into intervention group (NRS2002≥3 and PG=SGA≥4, n=204) and control group (NRS2002 \< 3 or PG=SGA \< 4 , n=98) according to the screening results.Different nutritional interventions were given to analyze the changes of NRS-2002 and PG-SGA scores between the two groups before and after propensity score matching, and compare the changes of dietary energy, dietary protein, total energy, total protein, body mass index (BMI), fat-free weight, walking time, grip strength and other nutritional indicators (hemoglobin, albumin, prealbumin) between the two groups.The effects of disease type and age on the results were compared by stratified analysis.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENTMalnutrition five-step treatment model + conventional nutritional intervention

1. Before operation:Same as arm description. 2. After operation:Same as control group. 3. Out-of-hospital: Same as before operation. 4. Strengthening Health Education and psychological intervention:Dietitians need to strengthen health education and communicate with patients during the implementation of nutrition intervention.For patients who actively cooperate with treatment, dietitians can give encouragement. 5. Exercise Instruction:After the operation, according to the tolerance, the dietitian can instruct the patient to take a certain time walking every day, gradually increase the patient's muscle endurance and improve the body resistance.

Routine nutrition support in department.Nutritionists will give patients routine parenteral nutrition support via peripheral or central vein 0-48 hours after surgery and then start enteral nutrition support 48-72 hours after surgery.Patients were initially given half of their enteral nutrition and the rest was supplemented with parenteral nutrition.After adaptation, the patient stopped parenteral nutrition and all nutrition came from enteral nutrition.After the patient's gastrointestinal function gradually recovered, the enteral nutrition could gradually decrease.At this time, nutritionists can let the patient eat some light liquid food, but pay attention to eating a small amount of multiple times.After adaptation, patients can gradually transition from liquid diet to semi-liquid diet.We will educate patients and their families about diet and encourage them to eat more high-quality protein-rich foods.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Patient-generated subjective nutrition assessmentbaseline and through study completion, an average of 1 yearNutritional risk screening scale:0-1 score, no intervention is required at this time, regular regular nutritional status score. 2 to 3 points, the nutritionist, nurse or clinician to educate the patient and family, and appropriate drug intervention for symptoms and laboratory tests. 4-8 points, requiring nutritional intervention and symptomatic treatment. A score of ≥9 indicates an urgent need for symptomatic treatment and appropriate nutrient support.
Nutritional risk screening 2002baseline and through study completion, an average of 1 yearNutritional risk screening scale:The maximum score of NRS2002 is 7 points and the minimum score is 0 points. A score of NRS2002≥3 indicates the presence of nutritional risk, and nutritional support programs should be developed in combination with clinical practice. A score of NRS2002 \< 3 indicates no nutritional risk, and a review is performed 1 week later.

Secondary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Dietary protein intakebaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearThe 24-hour dietary review method was used to investigate the diet of the patients in the first 24 hours, and the protein amount provided by each food was recorded, and the dietary protein intake of the patients was calculated by adding.
Nutrient energy intakebaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearThe nutritional energy provided by oral nutrition, enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition was recorded through inquiry and inquiry of nursing records.
Nutrient protein intakebaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearThe nutritional proteins provided by oral nutrition, enteral nutrition and parenteral nutrition were recorded through inquiry and inquiry of nursing records.
Prealbuminbaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearLaboratory indicators on nutrition
Albuminbaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearLaboratory indicators on nutrition
BMIbaseline 、7 days after admission、1 month after admission、2 month after admission、4 month after admission and through study completion, an average of 1 yearDietitians use a body fat scale to measure a patient's weight.When measuring the patient's weight, the body fat scale should be placed on a horizontal, firm floor.The patient takes off shoes and socks and wears light clothes.The patient then stood on the scale, keeping his body naturally upright.The patient's arms should be naturally drooped and relaxed at the sides of the body.Each weight measurement should be set at the same time.The dietitian uses a height meter to measure the patient's height.Weight and height will be combined to report BMI in kg/m\^2.
