Nutritional status as a predictor of comprehensive activities of daily living function and quality of life in patients with stroke
CONCLUSIONS: This study has revealed a relationship between nutritional status, comprehensive ADL function, and QOL among patients with stroke. Patients with stroke with better nutritional status had higher ADL function as well as better QOL. The MNA-SF was useful in predicting comprehensive ADL, whereas, the full MNA could be used to predict QOL. Knowledge and evidence of the association and predictive power of the MNA-SF and full MNA could guide clinicians to choose tools for assessing the nutritional status of patients with stroke more effectively.PMID:33814468 | DOI:10.3233/NRE-201540
