longer used the service or did not want to take part. One user had

malnutrition (2.56%), 12 were at risk (30.7) and 66.67% of users had

an adequate nutritional state.

Conclusions:

1. These users of the service form a group with a high risk of

malnutrition which requires a closer follow-up.

2. Although the number of cases in the follow-up is low, the data

support a greater development of the home-meals service as a

resource to improve the nutritional state of its users.

Objective:

The aims were to examine nutritional status in patients

admitted to geriatric wards in the year of 2013 compared to 2011,

and long-term effect of having access to bedside-supervision by a

trained nutritionist for a limited period of time.

Methods:

In all patients admitted to two geriatric wards during

a period of 11 weeks in 2013, we collected data from electronic

patient records on age, sex, length of stay, weight at admittance,

weight on discharge, risk of malnutrition, dietary intake during

stay, nutritional intervention, and plans for nutritional follow-up.

These data were compared to similar data collected for all patients

admitted to the same two wards in a similar time-span in 2011

in which the staff had access to bedside-supervision by a trained

nutritionist.

Results:

Preliminary result shows that, compared to patients

admitted in 2011 (n = 238), patients admitted in 2013 (n = 85) were

more likely to receive less than 50% of their estimated energy need

(24% vs. 41%, p = 0.047) and had lower intake of protein (24.6 g/day

vs. 36.2 g/day, p

<

0.001). Both groups were just as likely to be in

risk of malnutrition (81% vs. 87%, p = 0.86), and none of them lost

weight during their hospital stay. Length of stay modified the effect

on weight.

Conclusion:

The positive effect of having access to a trained

nutritionist seems to diminish with time. Ensuring that geriatric

patients receive sufficient nutrition during hospital stay remains

a challenge. Further research into the effect of length of stay and

nutritional status is needed.

Introduction:

Diabetes is a common disease in the elderly. It

potentially has a negative effect on the quality of life because

of its chronicity and its mutivisceral complications. Our purpose is

to study gerontological characteristics in a population of diabetic

patients older than 65 years.

Patients and Methods:

Retrospective study about diabetic patients

older than 65 years who were hospitalised in our department of

internal medecine between 2000 and 2011.

Results:

There were 75 patients: 42 women and 33 men. The

middle age was 70 years. 74% of them were polypathological and/or

polymedicated. 90% had at least 3 fragility characters. The middle

diabetes evolution period was about 10 years and 3 months. Loss

of autonomy was present in 33.3%. Dementia was noticed in 2.7%

of cases accociting a recently diagnosed diabetes. There was no

correlation between the occurrence of dementia and macro- and

microangiopathy. A depressive syndrome was noted in 13.3%. Uro-

vesical pathology was seen in 16.6% (urinary incontinence in

women and prostatic adenoma in men). Cerebral stroke occurred

in 20%, orthostatic hypotension in 5%, blindness in 5%, amputation

in 5%, disabling neuropathy in 5%, fall with hip fracture in 1 case,

arthrosis in 1 case. Dehydration was seen in 13.3% in association to

fever or metabolic disorders. Denutrition was present in 12%.

Conclusion:

Diabetes is a chronic disease which deeply influences

life quality of the elderly, especially when they are polypathological

and polymedicated.

Objective:

Assess the lipid parameters of laboratory presented

the patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus (T2DM) controlled in

primary health care-.with the purpose of providing comprehensive

and continuous care that improves your cardiovascular risk.

Methodology:

The authors conducted a cross sectional study

applied to selected patients (n = 104, 52 males(M) and 52

women(W)) chosen by non-probability sampling in a row, among

Type 2 Diabetic patients attending our clinic included in the Service

Care for diabetic patients Portfolio Services Primary Sacyl and

evaluates the parameters of lipid profile:Total-cholesterol(TC),HDL-

cholesterol(HDL-C),LDL-cholesterol(LDL-C) and triglycerides(TGs).

The data is collected in an Excel spreadsheet and are analyzed

using the SPSS9.0 for Windows.

Results:

1. 1-T2DM age: 90–95 (1M, 0W), 85–90 (1M, 2W), 80–85 (7M, 5W),

75–80 (7M, 7W), 70–75 (4M, 11W), 65–70 (10M, 10W), 60–65

(16M, 9W), 55–60 (2M, 3W), 50–55 (4M, 5W).

2. TC ≤185mg/dl: 46T2DM (44%, 25M, 21W). TC ≥230mg/dl:

17T2DM (16%, 4M, 3W).

3. HDL-C ≥40mg/dl: 75T2DM (72%, 30M, 45W). HDL-C ≤35mg/dl:

15T2DM (14%, 13M, 2W).

4. LDL-C ≤70mg/dl: 8 T2DM (8%, 4M, 4W). LDL-C ≥70 and

≤100mg/dl: 26T2DM (25%, 16M, 10W). LDL-C ≥130mg/dl:

36T2DM (34%, 14M, 22 W).

5. TGs ≤150mg/dl: 69T2DM (66%, 34M, 35W). TGs ≥200mg/dl:

9T2DM (6.6%, 7M, 2W).

Conclusions:

It is concluded that only 46% of patients with type

2 diabetes have TC ≤185mg/dl, with HDL-C ≤35mg/dl in 15% and

LDL-C ≥130mg/dl in 34% of the cases, only 8% have LDL-C ≤70mg/dl

which recommendation is the goal of treatment in T2DM patients

(very high cardiovascular risk) as the guide for the management

of dyslipidemia ESC/EAS 2011 (European Society of Cardiology/

European Atherosclerosis Society). Therefore it must implement an

improvement plan with enhanced care interventions from the AP

to obtain query control objectives in the lipid profile of patients

with type 2 diabetes controlled on Primary Health Care to improve

their cardiovascular risk.
