Objective To explore the nutritional status of inpatients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) and analyze the factors affecting nutritional risk, to provide theoretical basis for further nutritional support.Methods Convenience sampling method was adopted to select 719 inpatients with CKD as research subjects in a tertiary hospital in Chengdu, Sichuan Province from January to March 2018. Nutritional Risk Screening 2002 was used for nutritional risk screening, and chi-square test, t test, one-way analysis of variance, and multiple linear regression analysis were used to explore the influencing factors of nutritional risk.Results Among the 719 cases, whose average nutritional risk score was 1.79±1.11, 158 cases had nutritional risk, accounting for 22.0%. There were statistically significant differences in nutritional risk score between patients of age<60 years and ≥60 years, between males and females, between patients with CKD stage 1-3 and stage 4-5, between patients with serum albumin level <30 g/L and ≥30 g/L, and between patients with and without anaemia (P<0.05). The results of multiple linear regression analysis showed that the nutritional risk score of CKD patients was negatively correlated to serum albumin level (P=0.016), positively correlated to age (P<0.001), and higher in females than that in males (P=0.001).Conclusions Inpatients with CKD have a higher nutritional risk, with age, gender and serum albumin as the main influencing factors. Based on the above factors, the medical staff should continue to take targeted intervention measures to assess the nutritional status of CKD inpatients early and conveniently, so as to provide scientific basis for further nutritional support and nutritional nursing.
