Module 1 - Nutrition Care Process (NCP) Flashcards
What is Step #1 in the NCP?
- Obtain/collect important and relevant data
- Analyze/interpret collected data
What is Step #2 in the NCP?
- PES (problem, etiology and signs/symptoms)
In PES, P (problem) is what?
A nutrition diagnosis label
In PES, the 3 general domains of the P (problem) are:
- Intake (NI)
- Clinical (NC)
- Behavioral/environmental (NB)
Intake (NI) is:
excessive or inadequate intake compared to requirements
Clinical (NC) is:
medical or physical conditions that are outside normal
Behavioral/environmental (NB) is:
knowledge, attitudes, beliefs, physical environment, access to food, food safety
In PES, E (etiology) is what?
the cause of the problem and contributing factors
Characteristics of etiology are:
-related factors that contribute to problem
- identifies cause of the problem
- helps determine whether nutrition intervention will improve problem
- linked to problem by words “related to”
T/F: Etiology may not always be clear.
T
What part of PES is this statement?
Excessive energy intake (NI-1.3) (problem) “related to” regular consumption of large portions at meals (etiology)…
E
What part of PES is this statement?
Swallowing difficulty (NC-1.1) (problem) related to recent CVA (etiology)…
E
What part of PES is this statement?
Unintended weight gain (NC-3.4) related to decrease in exercise following ankle surgery.
E
- The focus of monitoring and evaluation
- Defining characteristics
Are P, E, or S?
S (signs and symptoms)
What are the characteristics of signs and symptoms?
- Evidence that a problem exists
- Multiple examples make stronger statements
- Linked to etiology by words “as evidenced by”
Evaluation and monitoring of effectiveness of intervention is done by reviewing what?
Signs and symptoms
Etiology usually __________ the intervention.
Guides
T/F: It’s ok to guess the etiology.
F
T/F: “Unknown etiology is acceptable terminology.
T
Which step of the NCP is this?
- Determine intervention and prescription
- Formulate goals and determine action
- Implement action
NCP Step 3: Nutrition Intervention
Which step of the NCP is this?
- Select or identify quality indicators
- Monitor and evaluate resolution of diagnosis
NCP Step 4: Nutrition Monitoring and Evaluation
Define “evidence-based dietetics practice”
The use of systematically reviewed scientific evidence in making food and nutrition practice designs by integrating best available evidence with professional expertise and client values to improve outcomes.
