ABSTRACT
Non-communicable disease (NCD) can cause mortality, morbidity and hospital readmission. Hospitalization can affect a patients nutritional status and impact a patients quality of life. The aim of this study was to determine the relationship between a patients discharged nutritional status with mortality, readmission and quality of life post hospitalization in patients with NCD. This study was an observational study with a retrospective cohort design. Subjects were selected by purposive sampling. Subjects were discharged patients with NCD aged 18 years or older, Mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) and subjective global assessment (SGA) were recorded. Discharged nutritional status 3 to 6 months from hospital was assessed using %MUAC and SGA. Quality of life was assessed using the SF-36 questionnaire. The results showed a significant relationship between a patients discharged nutritional status assessed by SGA and 3 to 6 months post hospitalization mortality (p = 0.047; OR = 4.92), as well as patients discharged nutritional status assessed by % MUAC and quality of life post hospitalization with non-communicable disease (p = 0.003; OR = 3.76). The malnourished subjects had an average quality of life sub-scale score lower than well-nourished, except for the mental health sub-scale (malnourished = 79.80±8.98; well-nourished = 78.78±10.63). There was no significant relationship between nutritional status and patient readmission (p = 0.427). It was concluded that a patients discharged nutritional status was related to mortality and quality of life post hospitalization in patients with NCD. There was no correlation between nutritional status and patient readmission. However, patients with malnourished nutritional status have a higher tendency for readmission.
