| Objective To investigate nutritional status and its influencing factors in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) complicated with osteoporosis in a city of Hainan province. Methods Questionnaires were used to collect data of 628 cases of patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and osteoporosis who received treatment at our hospital from March 2014 to May 2017. Mini nutritional assessment developed by Guigoz et al. was used to assess nutritional status of patients, and clinical data included hemoglobin and serum protein concentration were collected. Results The average score of mini nutritional assessment scale of the 628 patients with COPD combined with osteoporosis was (16.43±4.12), and malnutrition occurred in 421 patients (67.03%), at risk of malnutrition occurred in 113 patients (17.99%), and 94 cases (14.97%) had good nutritional status. Age (OR=2.11), education (OR=2.53), duration (OR=2.33), residential area (OR=3.15), medical payment (OR=4.57), COPD disease severity (OR=1.78), osteoporosis classification (OR=1.94) and dietary intake (OR=2.14) were influence factors of nutritional status in patients with COPD combined with osteoporosis (P<0.05). Conclusion Patients with COPD combined with osteoporosis had poor nutritional status, which was associated with education, age, degree, duration, area of residence, medical payment, COPD severity, osteoporosis grade and dietary intake. Medical personnel should timely provide targeted preventive measures, and improve the nutritional status of these patients. |
