UNASSIGNED: A cross-sectional study was conducted among physicians, dietitians, and pharmacists working in Saudi Arabia with regular practice in nutrition support. Data was collected through self-administered web-based survey, which was distributed via social-media platforms.
UNASSIGNED: A total of 114 responses were received from healthcare providers involved in nutrition support across Saudi Arabia. Of the respondents, 55 (48.2%) indicated that nutrition support services were available at their facility. Regression analysis showed that other regions in Saudi Arabia had lower odds of having HNS compared with the Western region (OR=0.01; 95% CI=0.01-0.69). The university and specialised hospitals had lower odds of having HNS compared with Ministry of Health hospitals (OR=0.11; 95% CI=0.02-0.71, OR=0.11; 95% CI=0.02-0.56, respectively). Hospitals with capacities of 100-250 beds and 251-500 had higher odds of having HNS than smaller hospitals (OR=13.17; 95% CI=1.09-159.5, OR=3.11; 95% CI=2.04-248.77, respectively).
UNASSIGNED: There is lack of published reports from hospitals with implemented HNS. Therefore, it is difficult to assess the current situation of HNS programmes. Future national studies focusing on HNS are warranted as there is a rising international trend in the number of patients requiring HNS.
未经批准:在医生中进行了一项横断面研究,营养师,和药剂师在沙特阿拉伯工作,定期从事营养支持工作。数据是通过自我管理的网络调查收集的,通过社交媒体平台分发。
UNASSIGNED:总共收到了来自沙特阿拉伯各地参与营养支持的医疗保健提供者的114份回复。在受访者中,55人(48.2%)表示,他们的设施提供了营养支持服务。回归分析显示,与西部地区相比,沙特阿拉伯其他地区患HNS的几率较低(OR=0.01;95%CI=0.01-0.69)。与卫生部医院相比,大学医院和专科医院患HNS的几率较低(OR=0.11;95%CI=0.02-0.71,OR=0.11;95%CI=0.02-0.56)。拥有100-250张病床和251-500张病床的医院比较小的医院患HNS的几率更高(OR=13.17;95%CI=1.09-159.5,OR=3.11;95%CI=2.04-248.77,分别)。
UASSIGNED:缺乏已实施HNS的医院发布的报告。因此,很难评估HNS计划的现状。未来针对HNS的国家研究是有必要的,因为需要HNS的患者数量正在上升。
