Subjects and methods: A cross-sectional study was performed on 42 severe patients at the Department of Infectious disease and Intensive care in108 Military Central Hospital from 7/2017 to 10/2017.
Results: according to BMI, the rate of malnutrition at hospital admission was 16.7%; SGA was 35.7%; Protein was31.0% and Albumin was 73.8%; 47.6% of patients had reflux of the stomach, 14.3% had diarrhea. After 1 week at ICU, the prevalence of malnutrition (by SGA scale) in-creased from 35.7% to 78.6%, OR =2.03, p<0.05, serum protein, albumin, RBC, Hb ware reduced (RRR ranged 6.9% to 10.3%; p <0.05). The influenced status of reflux of the stomach and / or diarrhea on nutritional status - SGA score (OR = 5.2, p<0.05) and on RBC and serum protein (OR ranged 1.5 – 1.6, p>0.05). Infection status influenced on prevalence of anemia 72.9% compare to 20% in group without infection (OR=10.8, p<0.05). A tendency of increased percent-age of malnutrition in infectious cases was founded (OR=2.3, p>0.05).
Conclusion: The nutrition status of severe infectious dis-eases gets worst during 1 week of treatment at the ICU; the influencing factors accounted for status of reflux of the stomach and /or diarrhea, infection during the stay.
