Resumo: | Introduction: Among gactors associated with malnutrition in cancer, the symptoms related to food intake may contribute significantly to the poor nutritional status. Objective: To assess the prevalence of symptoms related to decreased food intake and its association with tumor location of patients with digestive tract cancer, hospitalized by a Home Care Program for Interdisciplinary Oncology treatment. Method: This is a descriptive study that used secondary data from an Interdisciplinary Oncology Home Care Program. The study included all patients treated for Nutrition, diagnosed with cancer of the digestive tract admitted between February 2006 and February 2011.We analyzed their demographic, clinical and nutritional data. Results: Of the 102 patients studied, whose average age was 61 ±14.1 years old, 100% were regarded with some degree of malnutrition. Bowel cancer was the most predominant in both sexes, followed by cancer of the esophagus. The most prevalent symptoms corresponded to xerostomia (75.5%), early satiety (74.5%), pain (60.8%) and anorexia (53.9%). The prevalence of dysphagia in patients with tumor of the esophagus was approximately four times greater when compared to patients with other tumors of the digestive system (p<0.01 IC 95% 2.35 – 6.48). Conclusion: Xerostomia, early satiety, pain, and anorexia may have contributed to lower food intake, which increases the nutritional status of these patients. Through this knowledge nutritional strategies can be developed to prevent or improve the condition. |

Objetivo: Evaluar la prevalencia de los síntomas relacionados con la reducción de la ingesta de alimentos y su asociación com la localización del tumor, de pacientes con cancer del tracto digestivo, ingresados en un Programa de Internación Domiciliaria Interdisciplinaria de Oncología. Método: Estudio descriptivo que utilizó datos secundarios de un Programa de Internación Domiciliaria Interdisciplinar Oncológico. Participaron en el estudio todos los pacientes tratados por el Servicio de Nutrición, con diagnóstico de cáncer del tracto digestivo que ingresaron en el programa en el periodo de febrero de 2006 hasta febrero de 2011, y han sido analizados sus datos demográficos, clínicos y nutricionales. Resultados: De los 102 pacientes estudiados, con una edad promedia de 61 ± 14,1 años, el 100% han sido considerados con algún grado de desnutrición. El cancer de colon ha sido el más predominante en ambos sexos, seguido por el cáncer del esófago. Los síntomas más prevalentes correspondieron al xerostomia (75,5%), saciedad precoz (74,5%), dolor (60,8%) y anorexia (53,9%). La prevalencia de la disfagia en pacientes con tumor de esófago fue aproximadamente cuatro veces mayor en comparación con pacientes con otros tumores del aparato digestivo (p <0,01 IC 95%: 2,35 a 6,48). Conclusión: Xerostomía, saciedad precoz, dolor y la anorexia que puede haber contribuido a la menor ingesta de alimentos, lo que agrava el estado nutricional de estos pacientes. A través de ese conocimiento las estrategias nutricionales podrán ser desarrolladas para prevenir y, o mejorar esta condición. Introdução: Entre os fatores associados à desnutrição no câncer, os sintomas relacionados a ingestão alimentar podem contribuir de forma significativa para o comprometimento do estado nutricional. Objetivo: Verificar a prevalência de sintomas relacionados a diminuição da ingestão alimentar e sua associação com a localização do tumor, de pacientes portadores de neoplasia do aparelho digestório, internados num Programa de Internação Domiciliar Interdisciplinar Oncológico. Método: Estudo descritivo que utilizou dados secundários de um Programa de Internação Domiciliar Interdisciplinar Oncológico. Participaram do estudo todos os pacientes, atendidos pela Nutrição, com diagnóstico de neoplasia do aparelho digestório internados no programa no periodo de fevereiro de 2006 a fevereiro de 2011 e foram analisados seus dados demográficos, clínicos e nutricionais. Resultados: Dos 102 pacientes analisados, com idade media de 61+14,1 anos, 100% foram considerados com algum grau de desnutrição. O câncer de intestino foi o mais predominante em ambos os sexos, seguido do câncer de esôfago. Os sintomas mais prevalentes corresponderam à xerostomia (75,5%), saciedade precoce (74,5%), dor (60,8%) e anorexia (53,9). A prevalência de disfagia nos pacientes com tumor de esôfago foi aproximadamente quatro vezes maior quando comparados aos pacientes com outros tumores do aparelho digestório (p<0,01 IC 95% 2,35-6,48). Conclusão: A xerostomia, saciedade precoce, dor e anorexia podem ter contribuído para menor ingestão alimentar, o que agrava o estado nutricional desses pacientes. Através desse conhecimento, estratégias nutricionais poderão ser desenvolvidas a fim de prevenir e ou melhorar essa condição.INCA2012-12-31info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionArtigos, Avaliado pelos paresapplication/pdfhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/56610.32635/2176-9745.RBC.2012v58n4.566Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 58 No. 4 (2012): Oct./Nov./Dec.; 639-646Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; Vol. 58 Núm. 4 (2012): oct./nov./dic.; 639-646Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia; v. 58 n. 4 (2012): out./nov./dez. ; 639-6462176-9745reponame:Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online)instname:Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)instacron:INCAporhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/article/view/566/351Araújo, Évelyn de SousaDuval, Patrícia Abrantes Silveira, Denise Halpern info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess2021-11-29T20:13:07Zoai:rbc.inca.gov.br:article/566Revistahttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revistaPUBhttps://rbc.inca.gov.br/index.php/revista/oairbc@inca.gov.br0034-71162176-9745opendoar:2021-11-29T20:13:07Revista Brasileira de Cancerologia (Online) - Instituto Nacional de Câncer José Alencar Gomes da Silva (INCA)false |
