Resumo: | Aims: To assess the nutritional risk in hospitalized oncological elderly patients.Methods: Retrospective study conducted with oncological elderly patients hospitalized at the São Vicente de Paulo Hospital, in Passo Fundo, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil. Patients with cancer who underwent anthropometric and subjective evaluation by the Mini Nutritional Assessment Reduced Forms were selected. Data were collected from the research form used by the National Cancer Institute, including clinical evaluation, type of cancer, reason for hospital admission and length of stay.Results: A total of 70 elderly patients with cancer, of both genders, with a mean age of 72.94±6.93 years, were evaluated. All patients with pancreatic cancer had weight loss. Patients with lung cancer and pancreatic cancer had the highest percentage of severe weight loss (greater than 10% of usual weight in the last six months), 57.1% and 40% respectively, while the majority of breast cancer cases had no weight loss. Body mass index and calf circumference diagnosed greater proportion of normal weight (55.7% and 65.7%, respectively), unlike the Mini Nutritional Assessment Reduced Forms, that identified higher rates of malnutrition or nutritional risk (84.4%).Conclusions: Most hospitalized oncological elderly were found to be eutrophic by the anthropometric indicators body mass index and calf circumference, while a higher proportion of these patients were classified as malnourished or at nutritional risk by the Mini Nutritional Assessment Reduced Forms, as well as by the percentage of weight loss. Patients with lung and pancreas cancer had the most severe weight loss. These results confirm the importance of using different parameters to assess the nutritional status of elderly with cancer. |

Foram selecionados os pacientes com câncer que passaram pela avaliação antropométrica e subjetiva por meio da Mini Avaliação Nutricional Reduzida. Os dados foram coletados do formulário de investigação utilizado pelo Instituto Nacional de Câncer, incluindo avaliação de dados clínicos, tipo de câncer, motivo e tempo de internação.Resultados: Foram avaliados 70 idosos com câncer, de ambos os sexos, com média de idade de 72,94±6,93 anos. Todos os pacientes com câncer de pâncreas apresentaram perda de peso. Os pacientes com câncer de pulmão e de pâncreas foram os que apresentaram maior porcentagem de perda de peso grave (maior que 10% do peso habitual nos últimos seis meses), 57,1% e 40% respectivamente, enquanto a maioria dos casos de câncer de mama não tinham perda de peso. O índice de massa corporal e a circunferência da panturrilha diagnosticaram maior proporção de eutrofia (55,7% e 65,7%, respectivamente), diferentemente da Mini Avaliação Nutricional Reduzida, que identificou maiores percentuais de desnutrição ou risco nutricional (84,4%).Conclusões: A maioria dos idosos oncológicos hospitalizados encontravam-se eutróficos pelos indicadores antropométricos índice de massa corporal e circunferência da panturrilha, enquanto uma proporção maior desses pacientes foram classificados como desnutridos ou em risco nutricional pela Mini Avaliação Nutricional Reduzida, assim como pela porcentagem de perda de peso. Os pacientes com câncer de pulmão e pâncreas foram os que mais apresentaram perda de peso grave.
