Abstract
Objective
To investigate the incidence of nutritional risk in infants with lower respiratory tract infection, and to compare the effects of different nutritional risks on clinical outcomes, and to provide evidence for clinical nutritional management of infantile lower respiratory tract infection.
Methods
Infants and young children with lower respiratory tract infection who were hospitalized in our hospital from January 2013 to March 2016 were selected as subjects. Nutritional risk screening was performed using the Nutritional Status and Growth Risk Screening Tool (STRONGkids).
Results
A total of 957 infants with lower respiratory tract infections were included in the study. The incidence of high nutrition risk and low and medium nutritional risk were 17.6% and 82.4%, respectively. The clinical cure rate was 68.5% and 71.4% respectively. The children with pneumonia and bronchitis had high nutritional risk. The incidence rates were 20.60% and 4.87%, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2=25.52, P=0.000). Time-effect single factor analysis (Kaplan-Meier method): The hospitalization time for infants with low nutritional risk and high nutritional risk was 9.3(0.3) d and 13.3(1.0) d, respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant. (χ2=28.33, P=0.000), the total hospitalization expenses were 5 653.5(224.8) yuan and 10 079.5(1 755.8) yuan respectively. The difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2=4.47, P=0.034). Multivariate COX regression analysis: High nutritional risk was a risk factor for hospitalization of hospitalized infants with lower respiratory tract infection (RR=1.57, P=0.024).
Conclusion
There is a high incidence of high nutritional risk in infants with lower respiratory tract infection. Compared with children with low and moderate nutritional risk, the hospitalization time is longer, the hospitalization cost is increased, and the clinical cure rate is lower, which is the risk of clinical outcome. factor. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct nutrition risk screening for infants with lower respiratory tract infections, and provide a theoretical basis for clinical nutrition evaluation and nutritional intervention.

期刊介绍:
The Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition was founded in 1993. It is the first professional academic journal (bimonthly) in my country co-sponsored by the Chinese Medical Association and the Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences to disseminate information on clinical nutrition support, nutrient metabolism, the impact of nutrition support on outcomes and "cost-effectiveness", as well as translational medicine and nutrition research. It is also a professional journal of the Chinese Medical Association's Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition Branch.
The purpose of the Chinese Journal of Clinical Nutrition is to promote the rapid dissemination of knowledge on nutrient metabolism and the rational application of parenteral and enteral nutrition, focusing on the combination of multidisciplinary and multi-regional field investigations and clinical research. It mainly reports on nutritional risk screening related to the indications of parenteral and enteral nutrition support, "cost-effectiveness" research on nutritional drugs, consensus on clinical nutrition, guidelines, expert reviews, randomized controlled studies, cohort studies, glycoprotein and other nutrient metabolism research, systematic evaluation of clinical research, evidence-based case reports, special reviews, case reports and clinical experience exchanges, etc., and has a special column on new technologies related to the field of clinical nutrition and their clinical applications.
