Study Notes
Background and Purpose
- Obesity is a disease that requires medical treatment, recognized by the American Medical Association in 2013.
- The prevalence of obesity in the United States is 35.5% in adult men and 35.8% in adult women, including 4.4% and 8.2% respectively with BMI ≥ 40 kg/m2.
- Nutrition support clinicians are likely to care for obese patients, particularly during hospital admissions.
- The purpose of this clinical guideline is to guide clinicians on the nutrition support care of hospitalized adult patients who have obesity.
Question 1: Do Clinical Outcomes Vary Across Levels of Obesity?
- Critically ill patients with obesity experience more complications than patients with optimal BMI levels.
- Nutrition assessment and development of a nutrition support plan is recommended within 48 hours of ICU admission (strong).
- All hospitalized patients, regardless of BMI, should be screened for nutrition risk within 48 hours of admission, with nutrition assessment for patients who are considered at risk (strong).
Question 2: How Should Energy Requirements Be Determined?
- In the critically ill obese patient, energy requirements should be based on the Penn State University 2010 predictive equation or the modified Penn State University equation if the patient is over the age of 60 years (strong).
- In the hospitalized obese patient, energy requirements may be based on the Mifflin-St Jeor equation using actual body weight (weak).
Question 3: Are Clinical Outcomes Improved With Hypocaloric, High Protein Diets?
- Clinical outcomes are at least equivalent in patients supported with high protein hypocaloric feeding to those supported with high protein eucaloric feeding (weak).
- Hypocaloric high protein feeding may be started with 50%-70% of estimated energy requirements or < 14 kcal/kg actual weight, and high protein feeding may be started with 1.2 g/kg actual weight or 2–2.5 g/kg ideal body weight.
Question 4: In Obese Patients Who Have Had Malabsorptive or Restrictive Surgical Procedures
- Patients who have undergone sleeve gastrectomy, gastric bypass, or biliopancreatic diversion ± duodenal switch have increased risk of nutrient deficiency.
- Evaluation for evidence of depletion of iron, copper, zinc, selenium, thiamine, folate, and vitamins B12, and D is suggested in acutely ill hospitalized patients with history of these procedures (weak).
- Daily multiple vitamin/mineral supplements are recommended, and specific nutrient supplements should be taken according to the type of procedure and individual patient needs.
