Resumo: The study aimed to assess if age may be a risk factor of malnutrition in the elderly independent of a long-stay institution in the city of Sobradinho (DF). The data were collected from 24 independent elderly and separated two groups, one aged 60 and 79 and the other aged above 80 years. We used the Nutrition Mini Assessment (NMA), consisting of 18 items divided into: screening (food intake, weight, body mass index (BMI), mobility, neurological problems) and overall evaluation (use of medications, presence of skin injuries, meal types and quality, arm circumference and calf). The exclusion criterion was to be dependent or bedridden. As a result, the following data were found: 2 seniors (16.7%) over 80 years and three elderly (25%) aged 60 to 79 years at risk of malnutrition; 10 (83.3%) over 80 years and 9 (75%) aged between 60 and 79 years without risk. Conclusions: Using the results obtained from the data analyzed, it found that old age is not a risk factor for developing malnutrition in institutionalized elderly.

Os dados foram coletados em 24 idosos independentes e separaram-se dois grupos: um com idades entre 60 e 79, e o outro com idades acima de 80 anos. Utilizou-se a Mini-Avaliação Nutricional (MAN), composta por 18 itens divididos em: triagem (ingesta alimentar, peso, índice de massa corporal (IMC), mobilidade, problemas neurológicos) e avaliação global (uso de medicações, existência de lesões de pele, tipos de refeição e qualidade, perimetria do braço e panturrilha). O critério de exclusão foi o de ser dependente ou acamado. Como resultados, encontraram-se os seguintes dados: 2 idosos (16,7%) acima de 80 anos e 3 idosos (25%) com idades entre 60 e 79 anos com risco de desnutrição; 10 (83,3%) acima de 80 anos e 9 (75%) com idade entre 60 e 79 anos sem risco. Conclusões: Por meio destes resultados, foi possível verificar que a idade avançada não é fator de risco para o desenvolvimento de desnutrição em idosos institucionalizados. Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo2015-03-30info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/2951110.23925/2176-901X.2015v18i1p353-360Revista Kairós-Gerontologia; v. 18 n. 1 (2015); 353-3602176-901X1516-2567reponame:Revista Kairós (Online)instname:Pontifícia Universidade Católica de São Paulo (PUC-SP)instacron:PUC_SPporhttps://revistas.pucsp.br/index.php/kairos/article/view/29511/20573Copyright (c) 2016 Kairós Gerontologia.
