Abstract
- Introduction: chronic kidney disease (CKD) is characterized by its high prevalence of malnutrition, difficult to detect as it is underestimated by the usual tools. There is no valid or hospital-level nutritional screening tool in Spanish to identify patients with CKD at risk of malnutrition. Objective: to translate and accomplish the transcultural adaptation of Jackson‘s questionnaire (Renal Inpatient Nutrition Screening Tool [Renal iNUT]) to Spanish, which detects the risk of malnutrition in CKD inpatients and compares it with other nutritional tools. Methods: phase 1: translation, back-translation and transcultural adaptation of the questionnaire from the English to the Spanish version. A pilot test was carried out by nursing staff together with a satisfaction questionnaire. Phase 2: comparison of Renal iNUT with Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool (MUST) and Subjective Global Assessment (SGA). Results: phase 1: the nursing staff’s perception was highly favorable. They found it easy or very easy to use and 90 % of them did it in a maximum of ten minutes. Phase 2: from 48 patients included, Renal iNUT detected 44 % at low risk of malnutrition, 28 % at intermediate risk and 28 % at high risk. Increased sensitivity of Renal iNUT (p < 0.007) vs MUST (62.5 vs 33.3 %) and similar specificity (87.1 vs 90.6 %) were found, together with an acceptable correlation compared to SGA (r = 0.75, 95 % CI: 0.67 to 0.83). Conclusions: the Spanish version of Renal iNUT is a useful and easy-to-understand tool for health professionals. We also confirm its good correlation with SGA, with greater sensitivity than MUST for the risk of malnutrition detection in CKD inpatients. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
