NCP Lecture

The Nutrition Care Process involves 4 steps - nutrition assessment, nutrition diagnosis, nutrition intervention, and nutrition monitoring and evaluation - to systematically address a client's nutritional needs, develop a care plan with goals and interventions, implement the plan, and evaluate outcomes in order to refine future care. The assessment collects client data which informs the diagnosis of any nutritional problems, the intervention establishes objectives and strategies to address issues, and monitoring evaluates progress towards goals and the overall success of the process.

Nutrition Assessment (Definition)
“A systematic process of obtaining, verifying, and
interpreting data in order to make decisions about the
nature and cause of nutrition-related problems.”
 Lacey and Pritchett, JADA 2003;103:1061-1072.
Nutrition Assessment Components
Gather data, considering
Compare to relevant standards
Identify possible problem areas
Nutrition Assessment: Critical Thinking

Observe
Determining appropriate data to collect
Selecting assessment tools
Distinguishing relevant from irrelevant data
Organizing data
Determining when problems require
referral
ADA’s Nutrition Care
Process Steps

Nutrition Assessment
Nutrition Diagnosis
Nutrition Intervention
Nutrition Monitoring and Evaluation
Nutrition Diagnosis
 Nutritional problem

 Names and describes the problem

 Problem may already exist, or may be at risk of occurring

 Not a medical diagnosis


Nutrition Dx Domains: Intake
Defined as “actual problems related to intake of energy,
nutrients, fluids, bioactive substances through oral diet
or nutrition support (enteral or parenteral nutrition)
Class: Calorie energy balance
Class: Oral or nutrition support intake
Class: Fluid intake balance
Class: Bioactive substances balance
Class: Nutrient balance
Nutrition Dx Domains: Clinical
Defined as “nutritional findings/problems
identified that relate to medical or physical
conditions
Class: functional balance
Class: Biochemical balance
Class: weight balance
Nutrition Dx Domains:
Behavioral-Environmental
Defined as “nutritional findings/problems identified that
relate to knowledge, attitudes/beliefs, physical
environment, or access to food and food safety
Class: knowledge and beliefs

Class: physical activity, balance and function

Class: food safety and access


Nutrition Diagnosis Components
 Problem

 Etiology

 Signs/Symptoms
 Signs
 Symptoms
Nutrition Diagnosis Components
 Problem
 Describes alterations in pt’s nutritional status
 Diagnostic labels
 Impaired
 Altered
 Inadequate/excessive
 Inappropriate
 Swallowing difficulty
Nutrition Diagnosis Components

 Etiology
 Related factors that contribute to problem
 Identifies cause of the problem
 Helps determine whether nutrition intervention will
improve problem
 Linked to problem
Nutrition Diagnosis Components
 Etiology
 Excessive calorie intake related to regular consumption of
large portions of high-fat meals
 Swallowing difficulty related to stroke
Nutrition Diagnosis Components

 Signs/Symptoms
 Evidence
 Linked to etiology
Nutrition Diagnosis Components
 Etiology
 Excessive calorie intake “related to” regular consumption
of large portions of high-fat meals as evidenced by diet
history and weight status
 Swallowing difficulty related to stroke as evidenced by
coughing following drinking of thin liquids
Nutrition Diagnosis
 Excessive calorie intake

 “related to” regular consumption of large portions of high-


fat meals
 “as evidenced by” diet history & 12 lb wt gain over last 18
mo
Nutrition Diagnosis Components
 Food, nutrition and nutrition-related
knowledge deficit R/T lack of education on
infant feeding practices as evidenced by infant
receiving bedtime juice in a bottle
 Altered GI function R/T ileal resection as
evidenced by medical history and dumping
syndrome symptoms after meals
Nutrition Diagnosis Components

Nutrition Diagnosis Statement should be:

 clear, concise
 specific
 related to one problem
 accurate
 based on reliable, accurate assessment data

Nutrition Intervention Definition
“Purposely-planned actions designed with the intent of
changing a nutrition-related behavior, risk factor,
environmental condition, or aspect of health status for an
individual, a target group, or population at large.” –
 Lacey and Pritchett, JADA 2003;103:1061-1072

Directed at the etiology or effects of a diagnosis


Intervention Objectives

Should be patient-centered
 Must be achievable
 Stated in behavioral terms
 Pt and counselor must establish goals together
 What will the patient do or achieve if objectives met
Intervention Objectives
 Problem 1: Involuntary weight loss
 Objectives:
 1.
 2.
Intervention Objectives
 Problem 2: Inadequate protein-energy intake 2° poor appetite
 Objectives:

Nutrition Intervention

Intervention translates assessment data


into strategies, activities, or
interventions that will enable the
patient or client to meet the
established objectives.
Interventions should be specific

Nutrition Monitoring & Evaluation
Components

Evaluate outcomes

Compare current findings


with previous status,
intervention goals, and/or
reference standards
What gets Measured?
Nutrition
Monitoring
and Evaluation

Types of Outcomes
• Direct nutrition outcomes
• Clinical and health status outcomes
• Patient/client-centered outcomes
• Healthcare utilization

Intermediate-result outcome End-result outcome


Nutrition Goals and Objectives
Are necessary in order to evaluate

Should be achievable

Should be directly or indirectly related to nutrition care


NCP Example: Acute Care
Nutrition Assessment
Medical hx: 72 y.o. female admitted with decompensated
CHF; heart failure team consulted; has been admitted with
same dx x 2 in past month; meds: Lasix and Toprol; current
diet order: 2 gram sodium; has lost 5 pounds in 24 hours
