carbohydrate blood glucose
starts to rise
 Body cells use the glucose for
fuel or store it for later

Balance the Plate
Malnutrition
 The priority is getting the patient to eat
 At this stage healthy eating is not a priority
 Aim to provide nutritious foods which are high
in calories & protein
 Control Blood glucose with medications during
this period
Consequences of malnutrition
• Poor wound healing and higher risk of infections
• Frequent hospital admissions
• Muscle wasting, Lack of energy/Depression
• Dehydration
• Vitamin and mineral deficiencies
Recognising Malnutrition
• Mobility: weakness, impaired movement
• Mood: apathy, lethargy, poor concentration
• Current intake: reduced appetite, changes in meal
pattern and food choice
• Physical appearance: loose clothing, rings or dentures,
sunken eyes, dry mouth, emaciation, pale complexion,
hair loss
• Screening tools: e.g. MUST
Why Screen for malnutrition?
• Early identification of patients
at risk
• Early intervention
• When repeated weekly allows
monitoring where nutritional
care plans in place
• Audit practice
‘MUST’
Benefits of using MUST
• Easy to use, rapid and reproducible
• Any care worker can be trained to use ‘MUST’
• Can be used with patients who can’t be weighed
and measured
• Available on line from www.bapen.org, as well as
paper format in a variety of sizes
MUST

 Type 2 diabetes: Diet controlled
 5’ 4” or 1.62m

Type 2 diabetes: Gliclazide & Metformin
5’ 9” or 1.76m 13st 5lb or 85kg
Long term resident, normally has a good appetite but
slowly lost his appetite, staff are concerned
 Eating one small meal per day and struggling with snacks
despite being encouraged
 Gliclazide was stopped by the DSN due to hypos
 Concerned staff check his weight history and discover he
weight 98kg only 2 months ago = 13kg weight loss
What to do If you feel a resident is at risk of
malnutrition:
Inform a staff nurse
Monitor food and fluids on food
charts
Monitor weight weekly
Encourage oral intake – additional
snacks, food fortification
If no improvement consider referral to
a dietitian
Ideas for Food fortification
• Sprinkle 2-3 tablespoons of dried milk powder into a pint of full fat
milk
• Full fat yoghurts, full fat milk, milky drinks, ice creams, milkshakes
• Add margarine or butter to vegetables, potatoes, bread and
chapattis. Don’t use a low fat spread!
• Sprinkle grated cheese onto savoury dishes such as soup & potatoes
• Add sugar, honey or syrup to puddings, cereals, drinks and
