to determine body fats stores and nutritional status. The most common measurement site is triceps skin fold (TSF). Measurements can also be performed in subscapular and suprailiac skin folds.

Q

provides information on skeletal muscle mass.

A

Mid-arm and mid-arm muscle circumferences (MAC)

18
Q

determines the percentage of red blood cell of whole blood. It reflects the body’s iron supply. It is the iron component of the blood that transports oxygen.

A

Hemoglobin

19
Q

a ratio of the volume of red blood cells to the volume of all these components together, called whole blood

A

Hematocrit

20
Q

a protein that regulates iron absorption. It can be measured by the total iron-binding capacity (TIBC) (the amount of iron which it can bind). Serum iron is the amount of transferrin-bound iron

A

Transferrin

21
Q

Measures visceral protein status

A

Total lymphocyte count

22
Q

Protein malnutrition has been shown to decrease immune function. This diminished reaction to antigen is called

A

anergy

23
Q

It is an indicator of visceral protein status. Because it has a long half-life (about 20 days), it is not an indicator that detects subtle or early changes in nutritional status.

A

Albumin

24
Q

Also called thyroxine-binding prealbumin is the transport protein for thyroxine and retinol-binding protein. The half-life is 24-48 hours so it is an excellent value to monitor the effects of recent nutritional support and changes in nutritional status.

A

Prealbumin

25
Q

Normal Glucose level for Adult - Fasting serum:

A

70 - 110 mg/dl

26
Q

Normal Glucose level for Adult - Nonfasting:

A

85 - 125 mg/dl

27
Q

Normal Glucose level for Child:

A

60 - 100 mg/dl

28
Q

a substance normally excreted in the urine; it is dependent on the amount of skeletal muscle mass and it measures the amount of protein reserves.

A

Creatinine

29
Q

Urine creatinine is tested after collecting a 24-hour urine sample. An ideal urine creatinine level by height table is used to establish the denominators in the equation used to calculate

A

Creatinine height index

30
Q

Normal value for CHI:

A

greater than 90%

31
Q

CHI between 80% and 90% indicates

A

mild protein deficiency

32
Q

CHI between 70% and 80% indicates

A

moderate protein deficiency

33
Q

CHI of less than 70% indicates

A

severe protein deficiency

34
Q

usually taken into the body in the form of food protein sources. It is one of the compounds of amino acids.

A

Nitrogen

35
Q

Nitrogen is incorporated into protein and excreted in urine and feces. This balance of intake of nitrogen to output of nitrogen is compared, usually with a 24-hour urine sample.

A

Nitrogen Balance

36
Q

A negative nitrogen balance is abnormal and indicates a ___________(the body excretes more nitrogen than is consumed).

A

catabolic state

37
Q

Radiographic studies are used to determine bone formation and to assess development.

A

Diagnostic data

38
Q

a five step nationally recognized and validated screening tool to identify ADULTS who are malnourished or at risk of malnutrition. It is the most commonly used screening tool in the UK and is suitable for use in hospitals, community and other care settings.

A

Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool ‘MUST’

39
Q

What are the five steps of MUST?

A

BMI score
Weight loss score
Acute disease effect score
Overall risk of malnutrition
Management guidelines

40
Q

proven nutritional assessment tool that has been found to be highly predictive of nutrition-associated complications

A

Subjective Global Assessment

41
Q

a validated nutrition screening and assessment tool that can identify geriatric patients age 65 and above who are malnourished or at risk of malnutrition. The MNA® was developed nearly 20 years ago and is the most well validated nutrition screening tool for the elderly.

A

Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA)

42
Q

The aim of this review is to summarize current evidences on the use of this tool with particular focus on the rationales of its application in elderly healthcare.

A

Geriatric Nutritional Risk Index
