Major Case Study The University of Southern Mississippi Ashley Bryant
Overview • Patient Information • Disease Information • ADIME
General Information • T.M. • 76 yo Caucasian male • Lives in Hattiesburg with wife • Adult sons • Employed at trucking company
Report on Admission • Admitted 2/9/14 & discharged 3/25/14 (45 days) • Brought to ED immediately after onset of chest pain & left-sided weakness • Admitted to Internal Medicine • Primary Diagnosis: • Right pontine cerebrovascular accident (CVA) • Secondary Diagnoses: • Coronary artery disease (CAD) • Critically stenosed left internal carotid artery (ICA)
Special History • PMH: • CAD, MI, HTN, PVD, hyperlipidemia, skin cancer, arthritis • Family History: • Heart Disease • Social Conditions • Supportive wife & children • No economic, emotional, or psychological issues impacting health noted • Pt has insurance coverage
CVA • Etiology • Age, gender, race, genetics, HTN, CVD, DM, dyslipidemia, carotid stenosis, AF, cigarette smoking, physical inactivity, alcohol intake >30 grams/day, obesity, poor diet • Pathophysiology • Result of an interruption of blood flow to the brain • Brain cells are deprived of oxygen disrupted cellular metabolism & cell injury • Symptoms • Depends on area of brain that is impacted • Typically vision/speech loss, paralysis, muscle weakness, altered mental status—from confusion to coma (Nelms, Sucher, Lacy, & Roth, 2011)
Pt’s Treatment • Scheduled for carotid endarterectomy (CEA) of left carotid artery & coronary artery bypass graft (CABG) x 3 to correct the triple vessel CAD • Clinical nutrition assessment prior to surgeries • Pt reports great appetite, no problems • Eating cheeseburger & fries • Politely declined nutrition education
Pt’s Treatment • Surgeries on 2/17transferred to ICU for monitoring cardiac floor on 2/25 • Received & accepted nutrition education • Worked closely with therapy • Improved with speech therapy & was discontinued from their care • Transferred to inpatient rehab on 4/2 • PT & OT to regain function & decrease burden of care once he returned home • Met or surpassed all goals
Medical Nutrition Therapy • Treatment for CVA will vary depending on pt • Common dx: • Inadequate energy intake, inadequate oral food/beverage intake, inadequate fluid intake, inadequate protein-energy intake, swallowing difficulty, &self-feeding difficulty (Nelmset al., 2011) • Interventions: • Address any chewing/swallowing/self-feeding difficulty • Nutrition support could be indicated • Should be updated based on progression of rehab • Heart Healthy Diet • Post-CABG Recommendations • 1.) Optimize intake • 2.) NAS • 3.) 1500 mL fluid restriction • 4.) Heart Healthy/TLC after 6 weeks
Research • Cholesterol • Consumption of one egg per day is not associated with CHD or stroke • Consumption of more than seven eggs per week has been associated with an increased risk (EAL, 2014) • Fiber • Consuming more than 25 grams of fiber per day is associated with a decreased risk of CVD (EAL, 2014). • Moreover, dietary fiber and fiber-rich food intake inversely associated with risk of CVA in male smokers (Larsson et al., 2009) • Mediterranean Diet • Results in greater reduction of cardiovascular events in persons with high cardiovascular risk than low-fat diet (Glasziou, 2013) • Associated with lower mortality from all causes for patients with CVD (Lopez-Garcia, 2014)
Nutrition Prescription • At time of NST initial assessment • 1601-2002 kcal [based on 20-25 kcal/kg of body weight] • 96-120 grams [based on 1.2-1.5 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight] to promote healing and to prevent loss of lean mass
MNT • Diet Orders • Regular, NPO, TF, Dental Soft with TF, Dental Soft + Supplement, Regular NAS 1500 mL fluid restriction • Needs—Post-Op (ICU) [2/17-2/24] • 1601-2002 kcal & 96-120 grams protein • Actual Intake—Post-Op (ICU) • NPO [2/17-2/19] • ~1800 kcal & 112 grams protein [2/19-2/25] meets needs
Nutrition Care Process:Assessment • Medications • Norvasc (HTN) • Lipitor (Cholesterol) • Lovenox (DVT) • Lisinopril (HTN) • Metoprolol (HTN) • Miralax (Constipation) • Diet • Preference for high-fat foods • Right-sided weakness • NPO prior to surgery • Anthropometrics • 5’11”, 208 lbs • BMI 29.1 (overweight) • IBW 75.3, 125.3%IBW • Labs • Na 148 (H) • Cl 114 (H) • BUN 46 (H) • Ca 8.2 (L) • Glucose 127 (H) • Albumin 3.3 (L) • Cholesterol 203 (H) • TG 317 (H)
Diagnosis • Inadequate protein-energy intake related to (RT) NPO diet order post-operation as evidenced by (AEB) patient meeting 0% of estimated energy &protein needs • Undesirable food choices RT preference for foods high in saturated fat AEB abnormal lipid panel (Cholesterol: 203 and Triglycerides: 317) patient’s dietary recall of high fat foods, & RD’s observation of patient consuming a cheeseburger and fries after prior to his surgeries
Intervention • Initiate immune-enhancing formula Impact Peptide @ 25 mL/hr for six hours, then 40 mL/hr for six hours, then 50 mL/hr thereafter to provide 1800 kcal and 112 grams protein per day. • When advanced to oral diet • Obtained food preferences & provided an oral nutritional supplement to provide additional calories and protein for healing
Intervention • Nutrition Education • Increased protein for healing, no added salt, and a 1500 mL fluid restriction, as well as the TLC diet to begin six weeks after surgery
Monitoring & Evaluation • Goals • Intake meets at least 2/3 of needs • Maintain weights • Labs WNL • Verbalizes good understanding/compliance with diet • Dietary intake no longer reveals undesirable foods • Lipid panel WNL
Summary • Effectiveness of Dietary Intervention • Nutritional status improved • Verbalized interest in heart healthy diet post-op • Discharged to FGH home health for therapy & wound care • Influence Post-Discharge • Family support beneficial to pt’s success & psychological health • Insurance covered home care, beneficial to recovery • Prognosis • Good if compliant with diet & medications
Update • One week ago: • Lipids WNL with exception of HDL 39 L (increased from 34 L) • Chol 150 (decreased from 203) • TG 144 (decreased from 317)
