“…In this study, multi-comorbidities led to 6.6 times higher risk of malnutrition, more comorbidities, and increased susceptibility in the elderly as seen in Table 6. 10,[19][20][21][22] Conclusions Age, COVID-19 symptoms and the presence of disease comorbidities are risk factors for mental disorders and malnutrition in COVID-19 elderly survivors. The older the age, the more severe the symptoms of COVID-19; the number of comorbidities also increased the risk of mental disorders and malnutrition.…”

Background: The incidence rate of COVID-19 is around 11-15% in the elderly. The case fatality rate (CFR) of COVID-19 in the elderly is around 8.9% and increases with age. The risk of mental disorders and malnutrition is increased in COVID-19 survivors. Continuous inflammatory conditions result in a state of hypercatabolism that can disrupt brain neuroendocrine and protein consumption for the formation of acute-phase reactant proteins. Mental disorders and malnutrition can lead to fragility. The aim of this study was to assess the risk of mental disorders and malnutrition in elderly survivors of COVID-19. Methods: This research was a cross-sectional study. The results of the research on age, disease symptoms, and comorbidities have proven that they are risk factors for mental disorders and malnutrition in elderly COVID-19 survivors. This study used total sampling and included 100 study subjects. The research was conducted in Depok for two months; data was collected directly through shared questionnaires and direct anthropometric measurements. The questionnaires used were the SRQ-20 tool for mental disorder screening and MNA for malnutrition screening. Results: The risk factors for mental disorders were age over 70 years old OR 3 (CI 1.0-8.8), severe COVID-19 symptoms OR 4.5 (CI 1.2-16.17), and multi-comorbidity OR 2.3 (CI 0.6-8.8). The risk factors for malnutrition were age higher than 70 years old OR 2.5 (CI 0.8-7.9), moderate COVID-19 symptoms OR 6.3 (CI 2.0-19.81), and multi-comorbidity OR 6.6 (CI 1.5-28.5). Conclusions: Those infected with COVID-19 have a risk of mental disorders and malnutrition, especially in geriatrics, and this risk increases with age.

“…Preliminary findings from a multicentre observational cohort study in Spain highlighted a reduction in nutritional and functional status in ICU survivors at hospital discharge and identified the need for appropriate nutritional interventions during the ward phase of care and after hospital discharge to support this patient group [25]. The lack of evidence to guide nutritional practice across the continuum of care was described by Cereda et al [26].…”

Purpose of reviewPatients hospitalised with COVID-19 are at high nutrition risk and a significant number are likely to require ongoing nutrition rehabilitation. Here, we summarise guideline recommendations for nutritional rehabilitation in postacute COVID-19 infection, outline the rationale for nutrition rehabilitation for survivors of postacute COVID-19 in patients admitted to both the hospital ward and intensive care unit and discuss current evidence for interventions. Recent findingsSeveral guidelines exist outlining recommendations for nutrition care in hospital, critical care and the community setting. All have common themes pertaining to the importance of nutrition screening, nutrition assessment, appropriate choice of intervention and continuity of care across settings. While a plethora of data exists highlighting the high nutrition risk and prevalence of malnutrition in this population, minimal interventional studies have been published. SummaryPatients hospitalised with COVID-19 are at high nutrition risk. Future studies should focus on nutrition interventions for the rehabilitation period and determine whether nutrition needs differ between COVID-19 and non-COVID-19 survivors.
