Avaliação dos protocolos de triagem de risco nutricional em pacientes pediátricos: uma revisão sistemática integrativa

Abstract

Objective: Conduct a systematic review on evidence related to Nutritional Risk Screening (NRT) in hospitalized pediatric patients, considering risk factors, injuries and identification methods. Data source: Studies indexed in Scielo, LILACS, PubMed and Google Scholar, including master's theses published in Portuguese or English in Brazil that researched on Nutritional Risk Screening (TRN) in pediatric patients, published between 2010 to 2020. Data synthesis and Conclusions: A final sample of 12 papers was obtained, from papers with varied methodologies, to test, validate or associate any nutritional risk screening tool or anthropometric methods. Studies report that most NRT methods are fast to apply and have a better cost benefit, and can be easily applied on admission or during hospitalization. Greater use of the ANSG, STRONGkids and anthropometric data was observed, in addition, most studies generally associate the NRT tools with anthropometric metrics.
