Zusammenfassung
Introduction: Nutritional risk screening (NRS) is a widely accepted complex approach to evaluate nutritional (NT) status in gastroenterological (GI) patients (pts). Bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) is a non-invasive, easy-to-use and reproducible technique to evaluate changes in body composition. Objectives: Evaluation of the association between NRS, BIA, phase angle (PhA) and surrogate parameters (SP), resp. for a NT assessment in GI pts. Methods: Nutritional status was assessed in 611 GI pts by NRS. In addition, BMI, serum albumin and serum transferrin were determined and BIA performed. Receiver Operating…
