Nutritional assessment: Lean body mass depletion at hospital admission is associated with an increased length of stay
Open accessAbstract
Background Low fat-free mass may be an independent risk factor for malnutrition that results in an increased length of hospital stay (LOS). Objectives The objectives were to compare differences in fat-free mass and fat mass at hospital admission between patients and healthy control subjects and to determine the association between these differences and the LOS. Design Patients (525 men, 470 women) were prospectively recruited at hospital admission. Height-corrected fat-free mass and fat mass (fat-free-mass index or fat-mass index; in kg/m2) were determined in patients at admission by bioelectrical impedance analysis and were compared with values for sex-, age-, and height-matched control subjects. Patients were classified as well-nourished, moderately depleted, or severely depleted on the basis of a Subjective Global Assessment questionnaire and a body mass index (in kg/m2) < or > 20. Results Low fat-free mass was noted in 37% and 55.6% of patients hospitalized 1-2 d and > 12 d, respectively. The odds ratios were significant for fat-free-mass index and were higher in patients with a LOS of > 12 d [men (odds ratio: 5.6; 95% CI: 3.1, 10.4), women (4.4; 2.3, 8.7)] than in those with a LOS of 1-2 d [men (3.3; 2.2, 5.0), women (2.2; 1.6, 3.1)]. Severe nutritional depletion was significantly associated only with a LOS > 12 d. Conclusion Fat-free mass and fat-free-mass index were significantly lower in patients than in control subjects. Because the fat-free-mass index is significantly associated with an increased LOS, provides nutritional assessment information that complements that from a Subjective Global Assessment questionnaire, and is a more sensitive determinant of the association of fat-free mass with LOS than is a weight loss > 10% or a body mass index < 20, it should be used to evaluate nutritional status.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
