Abstract

This study aimed to determine the presence of pressure injuries and their severity based on Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) score and visceral protein levels in stroke patients receiving home care services. A case-control study was conducted in a case group with pressure injury (n = 54) and in a control group with no pressure injury (n = 54). The MNA scores and serum albumin and prealbumin values were significantly lower in the case group than in the control group (P < .001). There were also significant differences according to the pressure injury stages. Lower MNA score and low levels of serum albumin and prealbumin are associated with the presence of pressure injuries and increased severity of pressure injuries.

迷你营养评估评分和内脏蛋白质作为卒中家庭护理患者压力损伤的潜在预测因素

本研究旨在根据接受家庭护理服务的脑卒中患者的迷你营养评估(MNA)评分和内脏蛋白水平来确定压力损伤的存在及其严重程度。在有压力损伤的病例组(n = 54)和无压力损伤的对照组(n = 54)中进行病例-对照研究。病例组MNA评分、血清白蛋白和前白蛋白值均显著低于对照组(P < 0.001)。压伤阶段的差异也有统计学意义。较低的MNA评分和低水平的血清白蛋白和前白蛋白与压力损伤的存在和压力损伤的严重程度增加有关。
