Malnutrition is a major contributor to increased morbidity and mortality decreased function and quality of life increased frequency and length of hospital stay and higher health care costs New guidelines have changed the nutritional assessment methods The St Charles Supervisor of Clinical Documentation Improvement requested education to update physicians on the new guidelines citing a lack of understanding of the new criteria This activity addresses competencies ldquomedical knowledgerdquo ldquopatient carerdquo and ldquosystems-based practicerdquo This education is also relevant to documentation improvement specialists medical coders dietitians and nurses
Statement of Need
The views expressed herein are those of the presenter and do not necessarily represent St Charles Medical Center views The material herein is accurate as of the date it was presented and is for educational purposes only and
not intended as a substitute for medical advice

Learning Objectives
1 Increase understanding to apply the (2012) international consensus characteristics for adult disease-related malnutrition and their application in patient care
2 Examine updates on the relationship of inflammation serum albumin and relationship to adult disease-related malnutrition
3 Demonstrate how consistent documentation enables clinicians to better establish prevalence of malnutrition and in turn target cost effective interventions
4 Examine in-office and hospital tools to reduce incidence and identify patients at risk for adult disease-related malnutrition
5 Discuss future care models to prevent the negative economic impact of adult disease-related malnutrition
Note we will be discussing adult malnutrition in light of energy balance and
protein anabolism and catabolism rather than micronutrients

ldquoI suspect that one of the largest pockets of unrecognized malnutrition in America and in Canada too exists not in rural slums or urban ghettos but in the private rooms and wards of our big city hospitalsrdquo ldquoMany undesirable practices concerning the nutritional care of hospitalized patients have their roots in long-standing neglect of nutrition in medical education and in health care delivery systemsrdquo Charles E Butterworth MD Nutrition Today 1974

Malnutrition ldquoThe Cinderella of Modern Medicinerdquo
bull Viewed as ldquoOld technologyrdquo
bull Failure to define in a way that engages physicians to cause it to be taken seriously
bull Vague definitions and degree of it which requires interventions
bull Imprecise and perceived to disagree on how to diagnose and describe prevalence

bull distinguish the effects of semi-starvation on the bodys strength composition physiological status and mood from the confounding effects of such underlying diseases as cancer intestinal malabsorption renal insufficiency emphysema etc ndash illnesses that often give rise to conditioned PCM
bull The Minnesota group showed clearly that semi-starvation can be independently responsible for an array of psychological problems such as anxiety depression and hypochondria
bull From their studies it is possible to
demonstrate a clear relationship between a decline in fat-free mass and PCM-associated morbidity

Why not serum albuminvisceral proteins
bullInflammatory disease illness injury elicit a cytokine-mediated acute phase response
ndash Alters hormone secretion and target organ function
ndash Favors a catabolic state that results in metabolic alterations
bull Over the short run the acute phase metabolic response with resulting catabolism is likely an appropriate adaptive response
bull If the underlying stressor is severe protracted or repeated then adverse outcomes will result
Inflammation can blunt favorable responses to nutrition intervention

A Bridge to a Unified System
Adult Malnutrition - Clinical presentation - Will change - Altered Metabolic Status - Treatment specific to pre-disposing factors
-Starvation -Chronic disease -Acute disease or injury
Tool to Bridge - Academy amp ASPEN Consensus - Reasonable amp reliable literature and research-based criteria at this time - Will change with further clinical understanding - NOT the ldquobe-all end-allrsquo criteria for adult malnutrition
ICD Classification - A system to categorize and communicate adult malnutrition - Allows for benchmarking prevalence

Documentation and Work Flow
Acute Care Disease-Related Malnutrition Work Flow
Upon admission patients are screened by Nursing and MD Consults to Nutrition
Registered Dietitian (RD) assesses patients with nutrition risk factors
RD reviews malnutrition findings with MDNPPA team collaborates on plan of care with documentation
Upon discharge Coders review medical records and assign ICD-9 codes which generate data to monitor population and provide
potential reimbursement to hospital for acuity and MD for patient severity

bull Describe (succinctly and descriptively) objective evidence and details supporting malnutrition criteria and characteristics
bull Documentation of additional data builds supporting evidence
bull Subjective information is important too Describe pertinent evidence and associations to under nutrition
bull Quantify data bull Time frames of deficits actual weight change and percentages over time bull Intake percentages and estimates of intake compared to short term and long
term targets (especially calories and protein) bull Include nutrition physical assessment descriptions
bull Avoid vernacular Talk about nutrients food metabolism bull Describe ongoing nutritional needs and nutrient targets to stabilize or improve
nutritional status in the future
Quality Documentation
53
No single piece of information means a patient is malnourished bull Use critical thinking bull Consider the whole patient situation bull Nutrition history bull Ongoing ability to access and consume food bull Weight history bull Food and liquids intake history bull Metabolism

Project summary 20 to 25 of Providence acute care hospital admissions include patients with adult disease related malnutrition (DRM) This proposal is to investigate and implement simple electronic triggers work flow and basic resources for lower level interventions so that physicians and nursing staff in PMG will be alerted to weight loss and other malnutrition risk factors early in order to intervene and prevent nutritional compromise and hospital re-admission
Affordable Services
Improve Population Health
Best Care Experience
Simple and inexpensive first line interventions cost much less than tube feedings hospital infections non-healing wounds muscle function loss and weakness Ultimately preventing infections readmissions and morbidity
Recently released international standards define characteristics of adult disease related malnutrition We will incorporate many of these useful tools including connection with electronic health records and early ongoing patient tracking
Reduce and minimize trauma of nutritional rescue attempts and reduce or minimize hospitalization or re-hospitalization

data Discussed nature of project and timing of availability of data especially in light of complications with Epic data transfers into our data bases for analysis Included topic as part of regional medical nutrition committee work 1212
Triple Aim Goal Setting no changes two phases are emerging 1st is to obtain data and a listing of data needs has been made 2nd phase will be to determine steps for action based on the data results Data examples malnourished discharged to PMG volume visits utilization of health care services post dc and utilization by Medicare and other populations by zip code weight tracking in PMG those at low BMIrsquos for age
Lessons Learned Epic implementation slowed but did not delay setting up and organizing needs and determining questions for project
Upcoming Key Milestones Locating a resource to obtain the data within the Analytics group

Registered Dietitian (RD) assesses patients with nutrition risk factors
RD reviews malnutrition findings with MDNPPA team collaborates on plan of care with documentation
Upon discharge Coders review medical records and assign ICD-9 codes which generate data to monitor population and provide
potential reimbursement to hospital for acuity and MD for patient severity

Project summary 20 to 25 of Providence acute care hospital admissions include patients with adult disease related malnutrition (DRM) This proposal is to investigate and implement simple electronic triggers work flow and basic resources for lower level interventions so that physicians and nursing staff in PMG will be alerted to weight loss and other malnutrition risk factors early in order to intervene and prevent nutritional compromise and hospital re-admission
Affordable Services
Improve Population Health
Best Care Experience
Simple and inexpensive first line interventions cost much less than tube feedings hospital infections non-healing wounds muscle function loss and weakness Ultimately preventing infections readmissions and morbidity
Recently released international standards define characteristics of adult disease related malnutrition We will incorporate many of these useful tools including connection with electronic health records and early ongoing patient tracking
Reduce and minimize trauma of nutritional rescue attempts and reduce or minimize hospitalization or re-hospitalization

Registered Dietitian (RD) assesses patients with nutrition risk factors
RD reviews malnutrition findings with MDNPPA team collaborates on plan of care with documentation
Upon discharge Coders review medical records and assign ICD-9 codes which generate data to monitor population and provide
potential reimbursement to hospital for acuity and MD for patient severity

Project summary 20 to 25 of Providence acute care hospital admissions include patients with adult disease related malnutrition (DRM) This proposal is to investigate and implement simple electronic triggers work flow and basic resources for lower level interventions so that physicians and nursing staff in PMG will be alerted to weight loss and other malnutrition risk factors early in order to intervene and prevent nutritional compromise and hospital re-admission
Affordable Services
Improve Population Health
Best Care Experience
Simple and inexpensive first line interventions cost much less than tube feedings hospital infections non-healing wounds muscle function loss and weakness Ultimately preventing infections readmissions and morbidity
Recently released international standards define characteristics of adult disease related malnutrition We will incorporate many of these useful tools including connection with electronic health records and early ongoing patient tracking
Reduce and minimize trauma of nutritional rescue attempts and reduce or minimize hospitalization or re-hospitalization

Upon admission patients are screened by Nursing and MD Consults to Nutrition
Registered Dietitian (RD) assesses patients with nutrition risk factors
RD reviews malnutrition findings with MDNPPA team collaborates on plan of care with documentation
Upon discharge Coders review medical records and assign ICD-9 codes which generate data to monitor population and provide
potential reimbursement to hospital for acuity and MD for patient severity

Project summary 20 to 25 of Providence acute care hospital admissions include patients with adult disease related malnutrition (DRM) This proposal is to investigate and implement simple electronic triggers work flow and basic resources for lower level interventions so that physicians and nursing staff in PMG will be alerted to weight loss and other malnutrition risk factors early in order to intervene and prevent nutritional compromise and hospital re-admission
Affordable Services
Improve Population Health
Best Care Experience
Simple and inexpensive first line interventions cost much less than tube feedings hospital infections non-healing wounds muscle function loss and weakness Ultimately preventing infections readmissions and morbidity
Recently released international standards define characteristics of adult disease related malnutrition We will incorporate many of these useful tools including connection with electronic health records and early ongoing patient tracking
Reduce and minimize trauma of nutritional rescue attempts and reduce or minimize hospitalization or re-hospitalization

Adult Malnutrition - Clinical presentation - Will change - Altered Metabolic Status - Treatment specific to pre-disposing factors
-Starvation -Chronic disease -Acute disease or injury
Tool to Bridge - Academy amp ASPEN Consensus - Reasonable amp reliable literature and research-based criteria at this time - Will change with further clinical understanding - NOT the ldquobe-all end-allrsquo criteria for adult malnutrition
ICD Classification - A system to categorize and communicate adult malnutrition - Allows for benchmarking prevalence
