Discussion A Case Study at Hanoi Medical University Hospital with Further Analysis of Nutritional Status in Patients with Cirrhosis

Abstract

A study showing 20%-50% patients affected by malnutrition -a liver cirrhosis(Ali et al, 2022).  This paper aims to present a DISCUSSION A CASE STUDY AT HANOI MEDICAL UNIVERSITY HOSPITAL WITH FUTHER ANALYSIS OF NUTRITIONAL STATUS IN PATIENTS WITH CIRRHOSIS in 2022. REDCap was used to enter all variables. Stata version 15.0 will be used for data analysis. Research subjects:  Diagnosed with cirrhosis of any etiology (alcoholism, hepatitis C, cryptogenic/ autoimmune,…); Newly admitted to HMUH; Adults ( ≥ 18 years old). Results: With 109 cirrhotic patients ( average age of 54.1±10.8). The average value of the test indicators in the high threshold study subjects was Total Bilirubin (66.28 ± 94.02 µmol/L) and Glucose (7.15 ± 3.25 mmol/L), respectively. Only the mean value of Total protein (70.51 ± 7.27 g/L) was within the normal range. This result does not have significant difference with the results of Krishna C, et al on 2.017 cirrhotic patients and the average age was 52±11. Hence, assessment of nutritional status is very important and necessary.
