Mangelernährung bei Tumorpatienten unter Chemotherapie : Anwendung und Weiterentwicklung eines computergestützten Programmes zur Erfassung und Vorhersage des Ernährungsstatus onkologischer Patienten
(2012) Renger, Sebastian; Biesalski, Hans-Konrad
Malnutrition is a serious problem in the health care of cancer in- and outpatients. Especially for outpatients there is little information on their nutritional status available, because nutritional screenings are not often used, although there is plenty of them accessible. The workgroup of Professor Biesalski developed a software, called oncoMAT, to calculate the current and the prospective nutritional status of tumour patients. Patient data of cancer patients from Tübingen and Freiburg were collected and analysed to test the program. For comparison the gold standard SGA (Suvjective Global Assessment) was used. Anthropometry, BIA, blood analysis and patient questioning about adverse events were used to evaluate the nutritional status as well. Results were checked for specificity and sensitivity. The Risk-Score statements were evaluated considering different model-conditions. To calculate the prognostic score, patient- and illnessrelated parameters were proved by a variance analysis and a multiple linear regression.
