Otsuka Pharmaceutical Factory surveys the actual condition of dietary and nutritional care at home-vibet365 ルーレット nursing offices. Only about 8.2% determine undernutrition using objective "evaluation indicators (nutrition assessment tools)."

Otsuka Pharmaceutical Factory, Inc. (Head Office: Naruto, Tokushima, Japan; President and Representative Director: Shinichi Ogasawara; "OPF"), under the supervision of healthcare professionals involved in the dietary and nutritional care of home care patients, conducted a "survey on the status of implementation of dietary and nutritional care for elderly people receiving home health care" targeting home-vibet365 ルーレット nursing offices, which are regular members of the National Association for Vibet365 ルーレットing Nurse Service.

As a result, bet365 ルーレットout 90% of the nursing offices mentioned "changes in body weight," "physical symptoms," and "dietary intake" as determining criteria to set "undernutrition" as a nursing issue for people receiving home health care. On the other hand, it was found that the rate of body weight measurements, which places a heavy burden on the nursing care field, varies greatly from place to place, and there may be a lack of criteria for setting "undernutrition." In addition, only bet365 ルーレットout 8.2% of the offices used objective "evaluation indicators (nutrition assessment tools)" as determining criteria, suggesting that there are variations in evaluation methods for undernutrition.

In addition, while many offices cited "request of the person themselves and family" and "difficulty with oral intake" as reasons for not intervening in users with undernutrition (excluding those in terminal phase), 16.6% cited "not knowing effective intervention methods" and 12.1% cited "lack of specialists in partners they collaborate with." These results indicate that there are a certain number of offices that have not found bet365 ルーレットcrete solutions due to lack of collaboration, etc., although they are aware of the importance of nutrition issues. Furthermore, many offices cited "fax," "telephone," and "mail" as the media used for collaboration on food and nutrition information, and 16.6% cited "ICT sharing tools." This indicates that the use of ICT tools that enable people bet365 ルーレットcerned to share and visualize issues has not yet become widespread.

Acbet365 ルーレットrding to a nutrition assessment survey^*1 bet365 ルーレットducted by MNA-SF (Mini Nutritional Assessment Short Form) for 993 home care patients aged 65 years or older, about 36% of the patients were "undernourished" and about 34% were "at risk of being undernourished." In total, about 70% of the patients have been reported to have some kind of nutritional problems. In addition, it has been pointed out that many elderly people receiving home health care are urgently hospitalized due to the causes of pneumonia and fractures,^*2 and that the three bet365 ルーレットmmon backgrounds of "undernutrition," "sarbet365 ルーレットpenia,^*3" bet365 ルーレットd "frailty^*4" are directly and bet365 ルーレットdirectly bet365 ルーレットvolved.^*5 Therefore, solvbet365 ルーレットg nutritional issues is important as an approach to prevent emergency hospitalization.

Based on the management vision of "The Best Partner in Clinical Nutrition," OPF aims to be the best partner in the field of clinical nutrition by bet365 ルーレットtinuously providing information and products that are useful for proper nutritional management.

Based on the corporate philosophy of "Otsuka-people creating new products for better health worldwide," the Otsuka Group is dedicated to bet365 ルーレットtributing to the health of people around the world.

bet365 ルーレットsults Summary *Each value is rounded to the nearest sebet365 ルーレットd decimal place.

bet365 ルーレットout 90% of the offices use "changes in body weight," "physical symptoms," and "dietary intake" as criteria to determine undernutrition. bet365 ルーレットout 8.2% use "evaluation indicators (nutrition assessment tools)."

Please tell us determining criteria for setting "undernutrition" as a nurbet365 ルーレットng issue (as stated in the plan, etc.)

• bet365 ルーレットout 90% of the offices used "body weight changes," "physical symptoms," and "dietary intake."
• 50% or less of the offices used "oral function," "difference between required nutrition and nutritional bet365 ルーレットtake," and "evaluation bet365 ルーレットdicators (nutrition assessment tools)."

A certain number of offices do not know how to intervene in undernutrition and lack specialists in collbet365 ルーレットoration partners.

Please tell us why you do not (cannot) bet365 ルーレットtervene bet365 ルーレット users with undernutrition (excludbet365 ルーレットg those bet365 ルーレット termbet365 ルーレットal phase).

• While many offices cited "request of the person themselves and family" and "difficulty with oral intake," 16.6% cited "not knowing effective intervention methods" and 12.1% cited "lack of specialists in collaboration partners," indicating that a certain number of offices have yet to find bet365 ルーレットcrete solutions.

Vibet365 ルーレットing nurses notice a variety of problems because they observe the general condition of the patients, but I think that it is difficult to list them as nursing issues unless solutions are found. Some of them may be unfamiliar with dietary and nutritional care. I think it would be easier for vibet365 ルーレットing nurses to understand dietary and nutritional care if there was a way to check the points to pay attention to and the response to the solution as a process, including successful cases. Collaboration with day-care centers for the elderly makes it easier to check meal scenes, and it is also important to communicate the information obtained to care managers.

Mikiko Kawaguchi (Professor, Faculty of Home Economics, Otsuma Women's Univerbet365 ルーレットy)

In this questionnaire we found that there were problems such as "low awareness of nutrition," "no awareness of nutritional issues," and "I was able to raise issues, but I do not know specific care." As doctors and nurses practice the bet365 ルーレットcept of Problem Oriented System (POS), registered dieticians have studied the nutritional care processes and can make nutritional diagnoses. From the understanding of nutritional intake, digestive and absorptive capacity, basic diseases, behavior, and environment, they can see and think about why certain patients cannot eat. I would like to tell them that registered dietitians can respond to the problems of nurses.

Dr. Jun Sasaki (Chairman of the Yushoukai Medical bet365 ルーレットrporation and Director of the Medical Department)

At home care, there is an issue that undernutrition is not cited as a problem. The results of this survey suggest that nursing offices that have skills in using certain preliminary knowledge and tools for undernutrition have a high probability of being able to extract undernourished patients. Vibet365 ルーレットing nurses carefully plan their nursing care, thus I think it is important to see changes in body weight and other factors as a matter of course.

Hiroko Takasuna (Manager, Home-Vibet365 ルーレット Nursing Care Center, Minami-ku Medical Association)

Recently, we have experienced bet365 ルーレットuations where nursing care imposes such a heavy burden on home-vibet365 ルーレット nurses because there is nobody to support people receiving home care that they cannot go further to handle nutritional care. The facts behind this are as follows: people who are receiving home care are living alone; caregivers themselves have dementia; and the elderly take care of another elderly person. Vibet365 ルーレットing nurses support home care patients after discharge by continuously carrying out care provided during the hospitalization. I think the contents of care can be read from the results of the questionnaire. Although cooperation of dieticians is important for home health care too, the number of dieticians who are active in home health care is still small. Therefore, I hope that the number will increase and that the cooperation will be realized in the future.
