Quantification of dietary intake in long-stay geriatric patients: do we need seven days observation?
1Department of Geriatric Medicine, University College, London, UK.
Abstract:
Nutrient intake was assessed for 15 long-stay elderly patients by 7-d weighed inventory. Analysis revealed neither significant day-to-day nor weekday/weekend variations for any studied nutrient except fibre. It would appear that acceptable indications of customary intake in this population can be achieved by measurement over a shorter period than 7 d, such as 3 or 4 consecutive weekdays.
