Abstract

Objective: Assess nutritional status and identify some factors related to nutritional status of heart failure patient. Research methods: Cross-sectional descriptive study on 110 heart failure patients from 18 to 60 years old who received inpatient treatment at the Cardiovascular Center, Hanoi Medical University Hospital. Collecting weight, height, waist circumference, hip circumference, assessing nutritional status by the subjective global assessment tool SGA. Research results: The average BMI (Body Mass Index) of men was 24,1 ± 4,0 kg/m², the BMI of women was 21,5 ± 3,0 kg/m²; the waist/hip ratio of men (0,92 ± 0,06) higher than women (0,86 ± 0,05), both differences are statistically significant (p < 0.05). Study indicates that 8,2% of patients have chronic energy deficiency, 25,4% are overweight - obese. The proportion of patients at the risk of malnutrition according to SGA is 47,3%. Smokers are 4,56 times more likely to develop malnutrition than non-smokers (OR = 4,56; 95%CI: 2,04 – 10,18, p < 0,001). The risk of malnutrition is 5,67 times higher in non-exercisers than in exercisers (OR = 5,67, 95%CI: 2,42 – 13,24, p < 0,001). Conclusion: The rate of heart failure patients at risk of malnutrition is quite high. Besides pathological factors, there are many lifestyle factors that affect the nutritional status of heart failure patients.
