Abstract

Objective: To explore the effect of multidisciplinary teamwork of nutritional intervention in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH).

Methods: Multidisciplinary teamwork of nutrition management for patients with PAH was established. 100 patients with nutritional risk of PAH were randomly divided into control group and intervention group. The control group was given routine nutritional support, while the intervention group, was given the multi-team nutritional management scheme for nutritional intervention. After 4 weeks, the nutritional parameters, clinical symptoms, biochemical parameters and disease prognosis of the two groups were compared.

Results: Compared with the control group, the total score of nutritional risk screening was significantly reduced in the intervention group after 4 weeks. Serum albumin, the value of PaCO2 and the 6min walking distance were significantly increased, but the Brog dyspnea grade was significantly decreased (P<0.05).

Conclusion: The multidisciplinary teamwork applied to nutritional intervention in patients with PAH can effectively reduce the incidence of nutritional risk, improve the immunity of body, relieve clinical symptoms such as dyspnea, improve patient’s endurance and reduce fatality rate.
