Resumo: | Introduction: Nutritional counseling for patients with cancer is very important, because it can prevent utritional deficiencies and other serious complications. Objective: To evaluate the nutritional profile of oncological patients. Method: Cross-sectional study, carried out at a reference center in Oncology, Alfenas, Minas Gerais, Brazil. Dietary and anthropometric methods (body mass index [BMI], triceps skinfold [TS], arm circumference [AB], arm muscle circumference [AMC], and percentage of weight loss [PWL]) were used to trace the nutritional profile of 52 oncological patients (n=52) during chemotherapy. Other conditions of health were also evaluated. Results: There was a predominance of female sex (63%), and the age group >50 years (40% CI95[%] 27-53.7). The type of cancer correlated with patient’s sex (p<0.01). In female sex, the breast cancer had a prevalence of 51%, followed by the uterus cancer (18%). In male sex, the prevalence of prostate cancer was 10%, and, common to both sexes, lung cancer had a prevalence of 15%, being the most prevalent in males (32%). Systemic arterial hypertension was the most reported comorbidity (75%), and motion sickness the most common adverse event (69%). The mean values of the parameters BMI, TS, AB and AMC did not change significantly (p>0.05) at the end of the treatment, but 40% of the patients had a severe PWL, 23% no severe PWL, 4% kept the weight, and 33% presented weight gain. Among the patients evaluated, 48% used nutritional supplements. Conclusion: Nutritional counseling should be developed together with oncological patients, since we showed a variable nutritional profile in a heterogeneous sample of patients. |

Introducción: La orientación nutricional es de extrema importancia para los pacientes oncológicos, previniendo deficiencias nutricionales que pueden generar serias complicaciones. Objetivo: Evaluar el perfil nutricional de 52 pacientes oncológicos. Método: Estudio transversal, realizado en un centro de referencia en Oncología de Alfenas, Minas Gerais, Brasil. Para desenar el perfil nutricional de 52 pacientes oncológicos (n=52) durante la quimioterapia, se utilizaron métodos dietéticos y antropométricos (índice de masa corporal [IMC], pliegue cutáneo tricipital [PCT], circunferencia del brazo [CB], circunferencia muscular del brazo [CMB]) y el porcentaje de la pérdida de peso [% PP]). Se evaluaron también los datos generales de salud de los pacientes. Resultados: Hubo predominancia del sexo femenino (63%), y la franja de edad >50 años (40% IC95% 27-53,7). El tipo de cáncer se correlacionó con el sexo (p<0,01). En el sexo femenino, el de mama tuvo prevalencia del 51%, seguido por el uterino (18%). Para el sexo masculino, la prevalencia de cáncer de próstata fue del 10% y, común a los dos sexos, el cáncer de pulmón tuvo una prevalencia del 15%, siendo el más prevalente el sexo masculino (32%). Hipertensión arterial sistémica fue la comorbilidad más reportada (75%), y mareo el efecto adverso más común (69%). Los valores de los parámetros IMC, PCT, CB y CMB no sufrieron cambios significativos (p>0,05) al final del tratamiento, pero el 40% de los pacientes tuvieron una grave % PP, el 23% una no grave % PP, el 4% mantuvieron el peso y el 33% de los evaluados presentaron una ganancia de peso. Entre los pacientes evaluados, 48% usaban suplementos nutricionales. Conclusión: La orientación nutricional debe desarrollarse junto a los pacientes oncológicos, una vez que se haya demostrado un variado perfil nutricional en una muestra heterogéneo de pacientes.Introdução: A orientação nutricional é de extrema importância para pacientes oncológicos, prevenindo deficiências nutricionais que podem gerar sérias complicações.

Hipertensão arterial sistêmica foi a comorbidade mais reportada (75%) e enjoos, o efeito adverso mais comum (69%). As médias dos parâmetros IMC, PCT, CB e CMB não sofreram alterações significativas (p>0,05) ao final do tratamento, mas 40% dos pacientes tiveram um grave %PP, 23% não grave %PP, 4% mantiveram o peso e 33% apresentaram ganho de peso.
