Abstract

Diversos fatores podem contribuir para o déficit nutricional dos pacientes acometidos com Câncer de Cabeça e Pescoço (CCP), incluindo distúrbios mecânicos, funcionais ou metabólicos relacionados à localização da neoplasia, efeitos colaterais dos tratamentos, além de questões relacionadas ao paciente, como aspectos psicológicos. O objetivo do presente trabalho foi avaliar o estado nutricional de pacientes com CCP em atendimento ambulatorial. Trata-se de uma pesquisa exploratória, a qual foram avaliados pacientes atendidos em uma instituição oncológica terciária. Utilizou-se um banco de dados de triagem nutricional (Avaliação Subjetiva Global Produzida pelo Paciente – ASG-PPP), somado aos dados do Prontuário Eletrônico do Paciente (PEP). A amostra foi composta por 219 pacientes. Referente à avaliação nutricional, o IMC médio indicava eutrofia, apesar de haver um grande percentual de perda ponderal nas 2 semanas anteriores à avaliação e 65,8% dos participantes encontravam-se moderadamente ou gravemente desnutridos de acordo com a ASG-PPP.
