Activity Factor to Know
- 2 - sedentary
- 3 - active
- 5 - stressed
Megestrol Acetate
appetite stimulant
oral contraceptives
decrease folate levels
loop diuretics
deplete thiamin, potassium, magnesium, calcium, and sodium
Thiazide diuretics
decrease potassium and magnesium; absorb calcium
Methotrexate
Chemotherapeutic; decreases folate
Medicine: Lithium carbonate
antidepressant; increases appetite and leads to weight gain; maintain consistent caffeine and sodium intake. Restricting caffeine and sodium leads to lithium retention which is toxic. Diets over 2 g of sodium may be needed.
Warfarin, anticoagulants
Antagonizes vitamin K (consistent intake is essential)
propofol
administered in oil; 1.1 kcal/mL; check TG levels
Cyclosporine
Immunosuppressant; may lead to hyperlipidemia, hyperglycemia, hyperkalemia, hypertension
Isoniazid
treats TB; depletes pyridoxine, peripheral neuropathy.
Don’t take with food, interferes with vitamin D, calcium supplement may be needed
Elavil
antidepressant, may lead to weight gain
Vitamin B6 and protein
decreases effect of levodopa. Take in the morning with little protein and have heavier protein meal at night
Medicine: Tyramine
may lead to hypertension if taken with MAOI; restrict aged and fermented foods
HRA
Health Risk Appraisal; survey categorizing a populations’ general health status
Infant mortality rate refers to
infant deaths under 1 year of age, expressed as the number of deaths per 1000 live births
incidence
number of NEW cases of disease over a period of time/total number of people at risk x 100,000 (tells you the risk of developing disease)
Prevelance
total number of people with a disease during a period of time/average number of people x 100,000
nutrition survey
examination of a population group at a particular point of time, determines prevalence of condition or characteristic at a specific time
nutritional surveillance
Continuous collection of data, detects changes in trends, identifies needs and what kind of intervention is needed
nutrition surveillance based on
height, weight, hematocrit, hemoglobin, serum cholesterol
Both the BRFSS and YRBSS
can monitor changes in health risk behaviors over time and can better target health promotion efforts to populations most at risk
PedNSS
Pediatric Nutrition Surveillance System
follows low-income high risk children, birth-17 years with emphasis on birth-5years
United States Department of Health and Human Services
PNSS
Pregnancy Nutrition Surveillance System
low income, high risk pregnant women
United Stated Department of Health and human Services
NNMRRP
National Nutrition Monitoring and Related Research Program
jointly run by USDHHS and USDA
includes all date collection and analysis activities of the federal government related to measuring health and nutrition status, food consumption, attitudes about diet and health
NHANES
National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey
evaluates clinical, chemical, anthropometric, nutrition data
CDC
WWEIA or (NFNS) dietary component of NHANES
NFCS
National Food Consumption Surveys
USDA
obtain food intake on individuals and total households in the US
protein, calcium, iron, thiamin, riboflavin, vitamins C, A
BRFSS
Behavior Risk Factor Surveillance System
USDHHS
adults 18 +
telephone interviews collect info on Height, weight, smoking, alcohol use, food frequency for fat, fruits and vegetables, preventable health problems, diabetes
YRBSS
Youth Risk Behavior Surveillance System

Ulcers are mostly caused by
H. pyloribacteria
Treatment and diet recommended for Ulcers
antiacids, antibiotics; well-balanced diet with foods that do no worsen symptoms, avoid late night snacks
What are the symptoms of Dumping Syndrome
cramps, rapid pulse, weakness, perspiration, dissiness
Dumping Syndrome occurs
when rapidly hydrolyzed carbohydrates enter the jejunum and water is drawn in to achieve osmotic balance causing blood pressure to drop and signs of cardiac insufficiency to appear
Explain Reactive/Alimentary Hypoglycemia
Two hours after rapidly hydrolyzed carbohydrates are ingested. Blood sugar rises rapidly caused overstimulation of insulin, causing a drop in blood sugar below fasting.
Billroth I

Presence of diverticula (small sacs that protrude through the intestinal sac)
HIGH FIBER DIET
