Resumo: Introduction: The nutritional status of oncologic patients varies greatly throughout the disease, further to gastrointestinal tract related adverse effects that are common during chemotherapy treatment. Objective: Evaluate the nutritional status and the presence of gastrointestinal symptoms in oncologic patients undergoing chemotherapy. Method: Cross-sectional study with patients in treatment in the Chemotherapy Unit of the Hospital School of Pelotas Federal University (UFPel), RS, from April to July 2019. Sociodemographic data and questions related to the disease were obtained through a questionnaire. To assess the nutritional status and gastrointestinal symptoms the Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment was utilized. Data analysis was performed through descriptive analysis, and the association between categorical variables was verified by Pearson’s chi-square test (p<0.05). Results: A total of one hundred one patients was evaluated, mean age of 58.6 years, with higher prevalence of females (58.4%), Caucasian (77.2%), married (53.0%), belonging to class C (50.4%). Higher prevalence of gastrointestinal tract (34.6%) and breast (27.8%) cancer was found. Most patients were classified as well-nourished (66.3%), while early satiety (56.0%), xerostomia (54.0%), loss of apetite (42.0%), and nausea (37.0%) were the symptoms most cited. No statistical association was encountered between nutritional status and any of the gastrointestinal symptoms. Conclusion: The nutritional status of most patients was classified as well nourished, but attention is needed for the occurrence of gastrointestinal symptoms.

Objetivo: Evaluar el estado nutricional y la presencia de síntomas gastrointestinales en pacientes con cáncer sometidos a quimioterapia. Método: Estudio transversal con pacientes tratados en el sector de quimioterapia del Hospital Escuela de la Universidad Federal de Pelotas (UFPel), RS, de abril a julio de 2019. Se obtuvieron datos sociodemográficos y relacionados con la enfermedad a través de un cuestionario. Para evaluar el estado nutricional y los síntomas gastrointestinales se utilizó la Evaluación Subjetiva Global Producida por el Paciente. Las análisis de los datos se realizó mediante análisis descriptiva, y la asociación entre variables categóricas se verificó mediante la prueba de chicuadrado de Pearson (p<0,05). Resultados: Se evaluaron 101 pacientes, con edad media de 58,6 años, mayor prevalencia de mujeres (58,4%), blancos (77,2%), casados (53,0%), pertenecientes a la clase C (50,4%). Se encontró una mayor prevalencia de cánceres del tracto gastrointestinal (34,6%) y de mama (27,8%). La mayoría de los pacientes se clasificó como bien nutrido (66,3%), mientras que saciedad temprana (56,0%), boca seca (54,0%), falta de apetito (42,0%) y náuseas (37,0%) fueron los síntomas más frecuentemente. No se encontró asociación estadística entre el estado nutricional y los síntomas gastrointestinales. Conclusión: El estado nutricional de la mayoría de los pacientes se clasificó como bien nutrido, pero necesita la atención a presencia de síntomas gastrointestinales.Introdução: O estado nutricional do paciente oncológico apresenta grande variação ao longo da doença, além de efeitos adversos relacionados ao trato gastrointestinal serem comuns durante o tratamento quimioterápico. Objetivo: Avaliar o estado nutricional e a presença de sintomas gastrointestinais em pacientes oncológicos submetidos à quimioterapia. Método: Estudo transversal com pacientes em tratamento no setor de Quimioterapia do Hospital Escola da Universidade Federal de Pelotas (UFPel), RS, no período de abril a julho de 2019. Dados sociodemográficos e questões relacionadas à doença foram obtidos por meio de um questionário. Para avaliação do estado nutricional e dos sintomas gastrointestinais, utilizou-se a avaliação subjetiva global produzida pelo paciente. A análise dos dados foi realizada por meio de análise descritiva, e a associação entre variáveis categóricas, verificada pelo teste qui-quadrado de Pearson (p<0,05). Resultados: Foram avaliados 101 pacientes, com média de idade de 58,6 anos e maior prevalência de indivíduos do sexo feminino (58,4%), de cor branca (77,2%), casados (53,0%), pertencentes à classe C (50,4%). Encontrou-se maior prevalência dos cânceres do trato gastrointestinal (34,6%) e mama (27,8%). A maioria dos pacientes foi classificada como bem nutrido (66,3%), enquanto saciedade precoce (56,0%), xerostomia (54,0%), inapetência (42,0%) e náusea (37,0%) foram os sintomas mais citados. Não foi encontrada associação estatística entre o estado nutricional e qualquer um dos sintomas gastrointestinais. Conclusão: O estado nutricional da maioria dos pacientes foi classificado como bem nutrido, mas necessitando de atenção para a ocorrência dos sintomas gastrointestinais.INCA2021-03-01info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigos, Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/103610.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2021v67n2.1036Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 67 No. 2 (2021): Apr./May/June; e-041036Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 67 Núm. 2 (2021): abr./mayo/jun.; e-041036Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 67 n. 2 (2021): abr./maio/jun.; e-0410362176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporenghttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1036/943https://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/1036/1354Copyright (c) 2021 Revista Brasileira de Cancerologiainfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessCasari, LarissaSilva, Vera Lúcia Ferreira da Fernandes, Otávio Augusto Moura Goularte , Laura Moreira Fanka, Deize Elizandra Vieira Oliveira , Shirley Sousa ded’Almeida, Karina Sanches MachadoMarques, Anne y Castro 2021-11-29T18:27:36Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/1036Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T18:27:36Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false
