Abstract

Chemotherapy is highly recommended for cancer treatment. However, it can cause some side effects such as nausea and vomiting. Nausea and vomiting will affect food intake and nutritional status in cancer patients who undergo chemotherapy. To describe nutritional status based on anthropometry Body Mass Index (BMI), hemoglobin (Hb), Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA), and Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) in cancer patients undergoing chemotherapyin RSUP. Dr. Wahidin Sudirohusodo Makassar. This experiment uses a quantitative non-experimental research method with a cross-sectional approach, nonprobability sampling with a purposive sampling technique on 70 respondents, data collection with an interview, and observation techniques. Nutritional status based on BMI shows that 39 people (55.7%) had normal BMI values. About 37 people (52.9%) had good/normal nutritional status based on PG-SGA, while MNA reveals 100% of respondents experienced nutritional status problems. MNA is the best tool to iden tify the nutritional status of cancer patients that undergo chemotherapy since this instrument is susceptible and practical. PG-SGA is good to assess nutritional status in a subject who has lost weight drastically and shows signs of subcutaneous fat loss and muscle mass loss.
