U gerontologických pacientů trpících psychiatrickým onemocněním může být riziko malnutrice zvýšené. Jde zejména o nemocné institucionalizované a nemocné se slabším sociálním zázemím. Malnutrice se projevuje především úbytkem kosterní svaloviny, přičemž při zachování tukových zásob nemusí být patrná. Situaci dále značně komplikuje průběh akutního onemocnění, kdy dochází k dalšímu úbytku svaloviny, a tím i funkčních rezerv organizmu. U těchto stavů je nutné zahájit vhodnou nutriční podporu. V článku jsou popsány metody enterální nutriční podpory vhodné zvláště pro gerontopsychiatrická zařízení a dále přehled používaných aplikací enterální výživy u nás.

Enteral nutrition in gerontopsychiatry

The risk of malnutrition is higher in senile patients suffering from psychiatric disorders. This refers especially to hospitalized patients and to those who are of a weaker social background. Malnutrition is characterized mainly by skeletal muscle loss, it could be unrecognizable though because of preserved storages of lipids. The state could be worsened by the course of an acute illness, which promote further muscle loss and thus cause an impairment of functional reserves of organism. Under such conditions it is necessary to impose a proper nutritional support. The article describes methods of enteral nutritional support appropriate especially for gerontopsychiatric departments. A survey of available applications of enteral nutrition in our country is given.
