Importância da avaliação nutricional de recém-nascidos pré-termo por meio de relações antropométricas

Abstract: OBJETIVO: Mostrar a importância das relações antropométricas na avaliação nutricional de prematuros de muito baixo peso (RNPTMBP), durante o primeiro mês de vida. MÉTODOS: Estudo longitudinal prospectivo incluindo RNPTMBP (peso ao nascer <1.500g e idade gestacional <37 semanas). Foram aferidos peso (P), comprimento (C) e perímetros braquial (PB) e cefálico (PC) e calculadas as relações antropométricas: índice ponderal (IP), índice de massa corporal (IMC) e razão PB/PC. A seguir, calcularam-se médias e de… Show more

“…Furthermore, it is known that malnutrition in the neonatal period is associated with important problems, especially regarding neurodevelopment (1) . Under this situation, the nutritional evaluation is an essential tool in the daily lives of these children (22) . However, IUG restriction is high in premature infants and nutrient offer is a determiner for proper postnatal growth (23) .…”

“…The early identification of factors that might interfere in this process are indispensable for children, so as to minimize future repercussions to health (1) . The method used by healthcare professionals to assess children's growth is based on anthropometric parameters, weight measurement and registration, height and head circumference (HC) (3) . Following up on this variables helps identify children with higher morbidity and mortality risks, so as to promote and protect health through diagnosing and treating nutritional alterations (4) .…”

“…O índice ponderal (IP), por exemplo, reflete a proporcionalidade do crescimento intrauterino, pois leva em conta peso e comprimento. 8 Em virtude da limitação de métodos laboratoriais e de composição corpórea, a ava-liação nutricional do recém-nascido continua a se basear em parâmetros antropométricos, como peso, comprimento, perímetros cefálico e braquial e dobras cutâneas. Além dos parâmetros antropométricos, as relações antropométricas são úteis para descrever proporcionalidades corpóreas.…”
