Abstract

Background: The amount of food waste from patients in the hospital represents less than optimal feeding, so food waste can be used as one indicator to evaluate the success of nutrition services in the hospital. High scores of food waste can result in inadequate nutrition intake until malnutrition in hospitalized patients. Objectives: The purpose of writing this article is to analyze food waste and food service satisfaction in inpatients. Methods: Descriptive research with cross sectional study design. The sampling method in this study was simple random sampling, with a total sample of 30 patients. This study used the dependent variable is food service satisfaction in inpatients and the independent variable is food waste in inpatients in the form of staple foods, animal side dishes, vegetable side dishes, vegetable. The data collection instruments for this research were observation of food waste, satisfaction survey questionnaires, and interviews with the head of the nutrition installation. Results: This study found that the highest average percentage of food waste for inpatients was in staple foods (28%) and the least in animal side dishes (12.5%). Food waste in elderly patients (45.83%) and children (39.28%) is high when compared to the standard limit is ≤20%. Most of the patients complained that the food served at the hospital was less attractive, the portions were too large, the temperature was cold, and the food was less varied. Conclusions: The food waste of inpatients in the elderly and children at Islam Jemursari Hospital Surabaya is still relatively high, so efforts are needed to improve nutrition services. Evaluation and improvement in the quality of service for the provision of food in hospitals can reduce food waste and increase patient satisfaction.

Abstract

Background: The elderly population is vulnerable to hydration problems, which can have adverse effects on their health. Accurate and reliable hydration assessment methods are crucial for effective detection, monitoring, and management of hydration status in the elderly. However, there is currently no consensus on the optimal method. Objectives: This literature aims to analyze the hydration assessment methods used in the elderly population and evaluate their strengths and limitations. Methods: This study gathered data from relevant literature and research articles obtained from journals in databases such as PubMed, Google Scholar, and Science Direct. Articles were searched using keywords such as Hydration Assessment, Hydration Markers, and (elderly OR older). Data sources included publications from official websites and research journals. The literature review process involved selecting the review topic, searching for relevant articles, and analyzing and synthesizing the available literature. Discussion: Several hydration assessment methods in the elderly include biochemical parameters, clinical signs and symptoms, bioimpedance analysis (BIA), and ultrasonography. However, no single method can provide a comprehensive picture of dehydration status in the elderly. Conclusions: When selecting an appropriate assessment method, factors such as assessment goals, strengths, limitations, sensitivity, specificity, cost, equipment availability, ease of use, and time required need to be considered. By considering these factors, researchers can choose the most suitable hydration assessment method for the elderly population, thereby obtaining accurate and relevant information for proper management and care.

Abstract

Background: Anemia is the cause of child death in Africa. More than one-third (37%) of children aged 6-59 months in Zimbabwe are anemic. Anemia is caused by two factors, namely proximal factor (attached to the individual) and distal factor (not attached to the individual). Objectives: This study aims to determine the distal risk factors associated with anemia in children aged 6-59 months in Zimbabwe. Methods: A cross-sectional study design by analyzing Demographic and Health Survey (DHS) data for Zimbabwe in 2015. The total sample was 4303 households with children aged 6-59 months and fulfilled all the study variables. That became independent variables in this study were land ownership, types of livestock, and two factors from the results of the Principal Component Analysis test, water and toilet sanitation and building sanitation. Univariate analysis was performed to see the frequency distribution of each variable, then bivariate analysis with chi-square and Mann-Whitney tests to determine factors that were significantly related to the incidence of anemia and further tested with logistic regression. Results: Based on the results of this study, it was found that variables that were significantly related to the incidence of anemia were age, agricultural land ownership, types of livestock, water and toilet sanitation, and building sanitation. From several variables that became distal risk factors, it was found that variables that increased the risk factors for anemia in children aged 6-59 months, namely not having agricultural land (OR=2.84; 95% CI=2.38-3.4; p<0, 05), do not own livestock (OR=1.72; 95%CI=1.48-2; p<0.05) own poultry (OR=1.45; 95%CI=1.2-1.74) ; p<0.05) and building sanitation (OR=1.07; 95% CI=1-1.14; p<0.05). In addition, this study found a protective factor against the incidence of anemia in children aged 6-59 months in Zimbabwe, namely water and toilet sanitation (OR=0.85; 95% CI=0.8-0.91; p<0.05). Conclusions: The causes of anemia in children aged 6-59 months are multifactorial. We suggest that policymakers plan an integrated program specifically in agriculture and animal husbandry so that every household has agricultural land and livestock to reduce the incidence of anemia in children aged 6-59 months in Zimbabwe.
