Food Intake, Hospitallised Patients, Nutritional Status, MalnutritionAbstract
Hospital food intake can impact patients' nutritional status, resulting in a lengthier hospital stay or a higher mortality rate. This study aimed to investigate the nutritional status and the factors influencing the food intake of patients at Hospital Al-Sultan Abdullah (HASA). Malnutrition risk was assessed using Nutritional Risk Screening 2002, and factors affecting food intake were investigated using a questionnaire. Participants' weight and height were estimated using the anthropometry assessment formula. The body mass index was 25.3 ± 8.1 kg/m2 and 70.6% (113) posed no risk of malnutrition. Food tasting differently (48.8%) was the highest affecting factor in food intake.
