Q

The Acceptable Macronutrient Distribution Ranges (AMDR)

A
  • AMDR is expressed as percentage of total kcal.
  • (AMDR) has lower and upper boundary ; if we consume nutrients below or above this range ,there is a potential for increasing our risk for poor health

Q

what are the components of nutritional assessment?

A
  • Dietary and diseases history
  • Biochemical Investigations
  • Clinical Examination
  • Anthropometric measurements
30
Q

dietary and diseases history for nutritional assessment

A
  • Appetite, food habits & food preference, food allergy.
  • 24 hour food recall & dietary intake change.
  • History of GIT symptoms for > 2 weeks: Anorexia, nausea, vomiting, difficult chewing or swallowing, diarrheaโ€ฆ
  • Medical history of acute or chronic diseases having relation to nutrition:
  • Medications (> 3 prescribed drugs/day)
  • Supplements & diet restrictions & its relation to nutritional requirements.
  • Surgical history affecting nutritional status.
  • Neuropsychological problems, psychological stress, live independently
31
Q

clinical examination for nutritional assessment

A

General body built: thin, obese, short, enlarged thyroid.

Physical activity: active & alert.

Skin: smooth or rough, pigmentation, pallor, subcutaneous bleeding, edema or signs of deficiency.

Eyes: brightness, Bitot spots, or vascularization, night blindness, etc.

Mouth: gingivitis, glossitis, poor dentition, bleeding gums, etc.

Abdomen: surgical scars, hepatomegaly, etc.

32
Q

biochemical investigations for nutritional assessment

A

โ€“ Blood hemoglobin.
โ€“ Level of certain nutrient in the blood as ferritin, calcium
โ€“ Serum albumen level.

33
Q

anthropometric measurements for nutritional assessment

A

1- Height & Weight
2- Relative weight (RW)
3- BMI = Weight (kg) / Height (m2)
4- Skin-fold thickness over the middle of triceps muscle
5- Arm circumference
6- Head Circumferences
7- Chest Circumference
8- Waist circumference
9- Waist Hip Ratio (WHR)
10- Gluteo-femoral ratio
11- Computer Tomography (CT) & Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (MRI)

34
Q

height and weight in nutritional assessment

A
  • To be compared with the National standard growth
    monitoring curves:
  • Weight for age, weight for height, & height for age
  • Upward direction of the curve in monitoring child growth is very important.
  • Weight loss > 3Kg during last 3 months must be investigated
35
Q

what does relative weight equal?

A

Actual Body weight (kg) รท Ideal body weight X 100 (Ideal body
weight is obtained from special tables)

36
Q

categories of nutritional status according to RBW

A
  • 100% of IB W +/- 10% = normal
  • 80-90% of IB W = mild malnutrition
  • 70-80% of IBW = moderate malnutrition
  • Less than 70%of IBW =severe malnutrition
37
Q

Skinfold thickness over the middle of triceps muscle

A

(Normal)
* 20 mm in man.
* 30 mm in woman.
* > 13 mm in children.

38
Q

arm circumference in nutritional assessment

A

(Normal)
* 29.3 cm in man.
* 28.5cm in woman.
* 13cm in children under 5 years of age.

39
Q

when is a tri-colored measuring strip used in arm circumference assessment?

A

A tri-colored measuring strip can be used to identify malnutrition in children (< 5 years) without using scale or knowing the child age.

40
Q

idea of tri colored measuring strip

A

If the zero mark touches:

  • The green color, the child is well nourished.
  • The yellow color, he is moderately malnourished.
  • The red color, he is severely malnourished.
41
Q

Head and chest circumference in nutritional assessment

A
  • Head Circumferences: important in children for brain growth,
  • Chest Circumference, important in children for normal lung & respiration.
42
Q

waist circumference in nutritional assessment

A
  • 100 cm in man & 90 cm in woman
  • more than that =obesity.
43
Q

What does waist Hip ratio equal?

A

Waist circumference (cm) / Hip circumference (cm).

44
Q

when does waist-hip ration denotes central obesity?

A

It denotes central obesity if it is > 1.0 cm in man & > 0.9 cm in woman

45
Q

Gluteo-femoral ratio in nutritional assessment

A
  • Measures peripheral obesity.
  • < 0.85 in man & < 0.75 in woman
46
Q

Computer Tomography (CT) & Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (MRI) in nutritional assesment

A
