WEBINAR SPONSORED BY: MEDICAL NUTRITION PRACTICE GROUP Karen Lacey MS, RD, CD Dietetic Director Emeritus, UW- Green Bay Wednesday, November 20, 2013 Objectives Utilize critical thinking in the application of the Nutrition Care Process Evaluate the quality of PES statements Utilize the nutrition intervention standardized language Identify appropriate outcome measures and indicators for nutrition monitoring and evaluation Questions ????? How to write accurate PES statements (confusion between etiology and signs and symptoms) What to do if there are no nutrition problems How best to use when patients are hospitalized for a short period of time Questions about the use of the IDNT Charting How best to use the standardized language How/where to start Revised NCPM, 2008 Nationwide data results April 2013 Readex Survey Results Random sample of registered dietitians (over 3000 responded) = 95 % confidence level Questions: NCP is easy to understand; scale of 1-11; 1= very strongly disagree, 11= very strongly agree Are you familiar with the NCP?; yes or no Various stages of implementation of each step Change is fully institutionalized, Implemented, Training, Determining implementation plan, Aware of need, Not currently aware, Don't know Summary of Key Results NCP is easy to understand = mean of 7. (2013) NCP is easy to understand (% that responded 9,10,11) 2011; 31% 2013; 35% Familiar with NCP (% that responded yes) 2011; 45% 2013; 54%

Consultation with, referral to or coordination of nutrition care with other providers, institutions or agencies that can assist in treating or managing nutrition- related problems What’s New? – Intervention
#1 Set goals Based on signs and symptoms The indicator that you will monitor and evaluate Nutrition Prescription or Goal/Expected Outcome Reference Standard (e.g. national, institutional and/or regulatory standard) #2 Implement intervention Based on etiology
Measuring Select the nutrition care outcome indicator to measure the desired outcome (initial and subsequent) Monitoring Review the data at scheduled intervals Evaluate Systematic comparison of current findings with previous status, intervention goals or reference standard
Refer to Nutrition Assessment Terminology Additional Specific to Monitoring and Evaluation
Nutrition Diagnostic Terminology Intake Clinical Behavioral/ Environmental Energy Balance Oral or Nutrition Support Intake Fluid Intake Bioactive Substances Nutrient Functional Biochemical Weight Knowledge and Beliefs Physical Activity and Function Food Safety and Access Fat and Cholesterol Mineral Vitamin Carbohydrate and Fiber Protein
All the terms can/must be used as the “Problem” Some terms can also be used as the “Etiology” (can also be free text) Some terms can also be used as “Signs and Symptoms” as long as accompanied by actual data (can also be free text) Nutrition Nutrition Nutrition Nutrition Assessment Diagnosis Intervention Mon & Eval Problem Etiology Signs & Symptoms Nutrition Diagnosis Labels Intake Domain (excessive or inadequate intake of xx) Use of Nutrition Dx Terms
Evaluating your PES statement Problem (P) Can the nutrition professional resolve or improve the nutrition diagnosis? When all things are equal and you have a choice between stating the PES statement using two nutrition diagnosis labels from different domains, consider the intake nutrition diagnosis as the one most specific to the role of the RD. Evaluating your PES statement Etiology (E) Is the etiology listed the “root cause”? Ask “Why?” 5 times Can you envision an intervention that would address the etiology and thus resolve the problem? If you are unsure about resolving the problem by addressing the etiology, is your intervention targeted to reducing or eliminating the signs and symptoms?
Signs & Symptoms (S) Will measuring the Signs and Symptoms tell you if the problem is resolved? Are the Signs and Symptoms specific enough that you can measure/evaluate changes at the next visit to document resolution of the nutrition diagnosis? PES Overall Does the nutrition assessment data support a particular nutrition diagnosis with a typical etiology and signs and symptoms? A Well-Written PES Statement Simple, clear and concise Specific to the patient/client or group Descriptive of a single nutrition – related problem Accurately related to an etiology Based on reliable and accurate nutrition assessment data Nutrition Nutrition Nutrition Nutrition Assessment Diagnosis Intervention Mon & Eval Problem Etiology Signs & Symptoms
Example: Nutrition Support PES (P) Inadequate enteral nutrition infusion (E) related to: increased residuals and holding of TF for 2 hours (S) As evidenced: by 24 hour infusion less than goal by 500 ml Intervention: Nutrition Support Part 1: Nutrition Prescription and Goals Based on estimated nutrient needs using accurate reference standards Provide goal nutrients per estimated needs within 24 hours Part 2: Select Intervention Enteral Nutrition ND-2.

Evaluation of intake PES BEFORE Inadequate oral intake related to clinical status/physiological causes increasing nutrient needs (wound healing), as evidenced by poor appetite/intake, clinically significant weight loss, h/o low pre-albumin, dependence on multiple nutrition supplements to meet increased nutrient needs, and stage IV pressure ulcers Critical Thinking Too much data; not singular The S/S includes some data that describe the etiology Difficult to establish measurable goals The etiology does not lend itself to a clear and logical nutrition intervention Evaluation of Intake PES P= Inadequate oral intake E= increased nutrient needs secondary to wound healing of stage IV pressure ulcer S= observed poor intake of nutritional supplements, patient c/o decreased appetite and unintended weight loss of …… (quantifiable amount) Implementation of NCP Nutrition prescription: estimated calorie and protein needs to support increased needs Goal: patient improve appetite and intake to meet needs; weight stable Intervention: Meals/Snacks: protein modified ND-1. Supplements: commercial beverage ND-3.1. Evaluation of Clinical PES BEFORE: Altered GI function related to small bowel obstruction as evidenced by ngt for suctioning
Inadequate oral intake related to altered GI function secondary to small bowel obstruction and ngt suctioning as evidenced by NPO status X 3 days. Implementation of NCP Intervention (2 parts) Goals: Meet nutrient needs within 24 hours bypassing GI route (clearly linked to S) Parenteral Nutrition/IV Fluids (2.2) Provide recommendations Composition and Rate ND-2.2.1 & ND 2.2.
Evaluation of Behavioral-Environmental PES BEFORE: Food/nutrition related knowledge deficit related to lack of prior exposure to information as evidenced by pt’s questions/concerns
Food/nutrition related knowledge deficit as evidenced by pt’s questions/concerns regarding ………. (specify examples of such questions) May not need E (redundant) Common Issues No apparent nutrition problems Document pertinent data from assessment and clearly state “no nutrition diagnosis at this time” Follow institution’s P & P for routine rescreening or reassessment as conditions might change ND 3rd^ Edition: Predicted suboptimal energy intake NI-1.6 and Predicted excessive energy intake NI-1.
