Nutrition Risk Assessment in
Critically Ill Patients!
Clinical
– BMI
– Projected long length of stay
– Nutritional history variables
High NUTRIC Score
Low NUTRIC with risk factors
Sarcopenia
– CT vs. bedside US
– Frailty measures

Point prevalence survey of nutrition practices in ICU’s
around the world conducted Jan. 27, 2007
Enrolled 2772 patients from 158 ICU’s over 5 continents

Food intake 0-25% of normal requirement in preceding week
Calculate the total score:
All ICU
1. Find score (0-3) for Impaired nutritional status (only one: choose the variable with highest score) and Severity patients
of disease (≈stress metabolism, i.e.. increase in
nutritional requirements). treated the same
2. Add the two scores (→ total score)
3. If age >70 years: add 1 to the total score to correct for frailty of elderly
4. If age-correlated total >3: start nutritional support

When adjusting for age, APACHE II, and SOFA, what effect of
nutritional risk factors on clinical outcomes?

physical recovery?
Who might benefit the most from nutrition therapy?

Association Between CT Skeletal Muscle CSA and US QMLT
*Covariates are: age (linear), sex (binary), BMI (linear), Charlson comorbidity index (linear) and admission
type (binary).
**Low muscle index is defined as <55.4 cm 2/m2 for males and <38.9 cm2/m2 for females.
***Low muscle area is defined at <170cm 2 for males and <110 cm2 for females.
Variance inflation factor for QMLT in model with all covariates is 1.2
NA – not applicable
Easier to operationalize
Predicts for poor outcome
in ICU patients,
particularly the elderly
May identify a subgroup of
‘high-risk’ patients that
benefit from more
nutrition?

83% from EN
11.5% from PN
6% from enteral

<1% from IV
amino acids alone
Current Practice Results of 2014 INS
In all comers:
At a patient level, 16% of patients averaged more than 80% protein adequacy
At a site level, 6% (11 sites) averaged more than 80% in all patients.
