Sažetak
Introduction: Today, more and more research deals with nutrition. The impact of eating habits on the development of Multiple Sclerosis is all the more commonly discussed. Good nutrition is important for everyone. In MS patients, the role of a healthy diet is multiple: from helping to deal with the disease, adapting to the new state, reducing disease symptoms to a lower level, and reducing the progression of the disease. Objective: To test the usefulness of the Nutrition Risk Screening 2002 test in assessing nutritional status in hospitalized patients with Multiple Sclerosis. Material and methods: The research was conducted at the Clinic for Neurology KBC Osijek for a period of one year. "Modified Swallowing Assessment" (MSA) was used for the evaluation of swallowing, and "Nutrition Risk Screening" (NRS) for the evaluation of the nutritional status. Results: The survey covered 42 respondents who were hospitalized under the diagnosis of Multiple Sclerosis in the investigated period. The average life expectancy of the subjects is 49.3 years (≠ 11.6) in the range of 20 to 79 years. Majority of respondents, 32 (76.2%), were hospitalized five or more times. 36 of them (85.7%) have high school education. The results show that on the first estimate 14.3%, and on the second, 19.1% of the respondents are in nutritive risk. Respondents who are dependent on the assistance of another person have a significantly worse nutritive score (p = 0.033) on the first estimate Conclusion: Although data indicate that a certain number of respondents are in nutritive risk, a wider research should be undertaken to seriously assess and include more specific scales for assessing the nutritional status of patients with Multiple Sclerosis. Regardless of the results, good nutrition and nutritional status monitoring certainly contribute to a better quality of life for people with disabilities.
