| Abstract | ||
| A patient in the intensive care unit (ICU) has a variety of dietary difficulties. Patients admitted to critical care units may be hospitalized electively after major elective surgery or as emergencies following a surgical disaster, severe trauma, sepsis, or respiratory failure. The age range and previous health condition may vary greatly, and ICUs are now admitting a growing number of old, weak, or malnourished patients whose nutritional reserve may be seriously impaired. The pursuit of relevant quality indicators for nutrition therapy (QINTs) is both fascinating and challenging. The goal of this study was to identify the QINTs that are most suited to the practice of quality control in nutrition therapy (NT) by analyzing the views of NT experts using psychometric methods and statistical tools. Secondary data were collected from Al-Zohor Hospital's adult ICU records. from 1 May 2020 to 3 June 2021 for this observational, cross-sectional, retrospective study. QINTs that were ready for clinical use were evaluated in two stages. Nutrition experts evaluated QINTs in phase 1 by rating four characteristics On a 5-point Likert scale, rate usefulness, simplicity, objectivity, and low cost. The highest scores obtained were used to identify the top QINTs. In order to be considered, the following conditions had to be met: being at least 18 years old and having had ENT, PNP, or both . Men and women aged 18-65 years with a diagnosis of cancer were all evaluated, and they were supplemented with information required to assess quality indicators. | ||
