RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN NUTRITIONAL STATUS, DYSPHAGIA, AND FUNCTIONAL EATING LEVEL IN ADULT PATIENTS WITH CEREBRAL PALSY IN LONG INSTITUTIONAL STAYS

Relação entre estado nutricional, disfagia, e nível funcional de alimentação em pacientes adultos com paralisia cerebral em instituição de longa permanência

ABSTRACT

Background:

Diets with modified consistencies for patients with dysphagia in long term care health institutions may be associated with malnutrition.

Objective

: To assess the nutritional status of adult patients with cerebral palsy and dysphagia hospitalized in a health institution for more than 10 years.

Methods

: This prospective investigation was performed in 56 patients with cerebral palsy (ages 25 to 71 years, mean: 44±12 years) and no other neurological diagnosis in hospital stay for more than 10 years had their nutritional status, dysphagia, and food ingestion capacity assessed in two moments with a 12-month interval in between them, respectively using the body mass index, the dysphagia risk assessment protocol (PARD), and the functional oral ingestion scale (FOIS).

Results

: There were no differences between December 2015 and December 2016 in the patients’ weight, nutritional status, diet consistency classification, PARD, and FOIS. The limits of prescribed diet consistency (IDDSI-FDS) and the assessments of dysphagia and functional eating level influenced the nutritional status. More intense dysphagia and greater eating restrictions were associated with a worse nutritional status.

Conclusion

: The nutritional status of adult patients with cerebral palsy hospitalized in a health long term institution who had modified diets according to their swallowing and mastication capacity did not worsen between assessments with a 12-month interval in between them. The severity of dysphagia and diet restrictions interfere with the patients’ nutritional status: dysphagia and more intense eating restrictions are associated with a worse nutritional status.

RESUMO

Contexto:

Dieta com consistência modificada para pacientes com disfagia internados em instituições por longa permanência pode causar desnutrição.

Objetivo

: Avaliar o estado nutricional de pacientes adultos com paralisia cerebral (PC) e disfagia internados em instituição de saúde por mais de dez anos.

Métodos

: É um estudo prospectivo realizado em 56 pacientes com PC com idades entre 25 e 71 anos, média: 44±12 anos. O estado nutricional, a disfagia e a capacidade de ingestão alimentar foram avaliados em dois momentos, separados por 12 meses, respectivamente pelo índice de massa corporal (IMC), protocolo de avaliação do risco de disfagia (PARD) e pela escala funcional de ingestão por via oral (FOIS), em 56 pacientes com PC internados em instituição hospitalar por mais de 10 anos, sem outro diagnóstico neurológico.

Resultados

: Não houve diferenças, entre dezembro de 2015 e dezembro de 2016, nas avaliações do peso, do estado nutricional, na classificação da consistência da dieta ingerida, na escala PARD para disfagia e na escala FOIS de avaliação de ingestão por via oral. Houve influência dos limites da consistência da dieta prescrita (IDDSI-FDS), da avaliação da disfagia e do nível funcional da alimentação no estado nutricional. Disfagia mais intensa e maior restrição alimentar foram associadas com pior estado nutricional.

Conclusão

: Em pacientes adultos com PC, avaliados com intervalo de 12 meses, não houve piora do estado nutricional. A intensidade da disfagia e as restrições alimentares são fatores que interferem no estado nutricional dos pacientes, disfagia e restrições alimentares mais intensas associadas com pior estado nutricional.

INTRODUCTION

Cerebral palsy (CP) is a diagnosis that encompasses a set of permanent changes that affect movements, muscle tone, posture, perception, sensations, cognition, communication, and behavior11. Rosenbaum P, Paneth N, Leviton A, Goldstein M, Bax M. A report: the definition and classification of cerebral palsy April 2006. Dev Med Child Neurol. 2007;49(Supl 109):8-14.. This condition results from interrupted oxygen supply, leading to a hypoxia/ischemia process, which combined with other factors cause cerebral lesion and limitations to development22. Marret S, Vanhulle C, Laquerriere A. Pathophysiology of cerebral palsy. Handb Clin Neurol. 2013;111:169-76..

Patients with CP from birth are frequently affected with dysphagia, which is perceived in the first weeks of life33. Narawane A, Rappazo C, Hawney J, Eng J, Ongkasuwan J. Videofluoroscopic swallow study findings and correlations in infancy of children with cerebral palsy. Ann Otol Rhinol Laryngol. 2022;131:478-84., impairing their quality of life and survival. Some of them survive into adulthood, despite limitations to ingesting food44. Seo HG, Yi YG, Choi YA, Leigh JH, Yi Y, Kim K, et al. Oropharyngeal dysphagia in adults with dyskinetic cerebral palsy and cervical dystonia: a preliminary study. Arch Phys Med Rehabil. 2019;100:495-500.,55. Yi YG, Oh BM, Seo HG, Shin HI, Bang MS. Dysphagia-related quality of life in adults with cerebral palsy on full oral diet without enteral nutrition. Dysphagia. 2019;34:201-9., as well as other limitations and complications from the disease.

Adult patients with CP may need daily care, sometimes living in long term care institutions for a long time. Those who can maintain oral feeding may need adjustments in food consistencies to ensure safe and effective eating. However, changes in the diet of patients in long institutional stays are associated with malnutrition, muscle mass loss, and dehydration66. Vucea V, Keller HH, Morrison JM, Duizer LM, Duncan AM, Carrier N, et al. Modified texture food use is associated with malnutrition in long term care: an analysis of making the most of mealtimes (M3) project. J Nutr Health Aging. 2018;22:916-22.

The objectives of this investigation were to: a) learn the limits of modified diets ingested by adult patients with CP in long institutional stays, based on the classification of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative - Functional Diet Scale (IDDSI-FDS)99. Steele CM, Namasivayam-MacDonald AM, Guida BT, Cichero JA, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Creation and initial validation of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Functional Diet Scale. Arch Phys Med Rehabil . 2018;99:934-44.; b) assess changes in the patients’ nutritional status over 12 months, whose diets had the indicated consistencies according to their limitations; c) assess the relationship between nutritional status, dysphagia, functional eating level, and gross motor function classification. The hypothesis was that long institutional stays combined with limitations from the disease are associated with malnutrition (which may progress over 12 months even when the patients’ diets have an adequate consistency to their condition) and that there is a relationship between the nutritional status, dysphagia, functional eating level, and gross motor function classification.

METHODS

This study was conducted in adult patients diagnosed with CP and dysphagia, institutionalized in the neurological rehabilitation center at the Regional Hospital of Divinolândia, São Paulo, Brazil. This is a prospective cohort study in which all participants were assessed twice in December 2015 and December 2016. No patient had any other neurological diagnosis. The investigation was approved by the Research Ethics Committee of the Medical School of Ribeirão Preto (USP), protocol number 7274/2016, and by the board of directors of the Regional Hospital of Divinolândia. The identities of patients, caregivers, and relatives were kept confidential.

Patients motor function were classified with the gross motor function classification system (GMFCS)1010. Palisano RJ, Rosenbaum P, Walter S, Wood E, Galuppi B. Development and reliability of a system to classify gross motor function in children of cerebral palsy. Dev Med Child Neurol . 1997;39:214-23.,1111. Hiratuka E, Matsukura TS, Pfeifer LI. Cross-cultural adaptation of the Gross Motor Function Classification System into Brazilian Portuguese (GMFCS). Rev Bras Fisioter. 2019;14:537-44., swallowing was assessed by using the speech-language-hearing dysphagia risk assessment protocol (PARD, in Portuguese)1212. Padovani AR, Moraes DP, Mangili LD, Andrade CRF. Protocolo fonoaudiológico de avaliação do risco para disfagia (PARD). Rev Soc Bras Fonoaudiol. 2007;12:199-205., and the functional oral ingestion scale (FOIS)1313. Crary MA, Mann GD, Groher ME. Initial psychometric assessment of a functional oral intake scale for dysphagia in stroke patients. Arch Phys Med Rehab. 2005;86:1516-20.,1414. Furkim AM, Sacco ABF. Eficácia da fonoterapia em disfagia neurogênica usando a escala funcional de ingestão por via oral (FOIS) como marcador. Rev CEFAC. 2008;10:503-12.. GMFCS divides patients with CP into levels 1 (walks with no difficulties but some restrictions) through 7 (very limited mobility, even with the use of technological assistance). PARD results range from level 1 (normal swallowing) to 7 (severe oropharyngeal dysphagia), and FOIS results range from level 1 (no oral feeding) to 7 (totally oral diet, with no restrictions).

The nutritional status was assessed by calculating the body mass index (BMI), defined by the World Health Organization1515. World Health Organization. Obesity: preventing and managing the global epidemic. Geneva: WHO, 1997., and with the method for people above 60 years old1616. Lipschitz DA. Screening for nutritional status in the elderly. Prim Care. 1994;21:55-67.. BMI is calculated with the person’s weight and height1515. World Health Organization. Obesity: preventing and managing the global epidemic. Geneva: WHO, 1997.,1616. Lipschitz DA. Screening for nutritional status in the elderly. Prim Care. 1994;21:55-67.. The body height of patients with CP was calculated with a validated method that measures knee height1717. Chumlea WMC, Guo SS, Steinbaugh ML. Prediction of stature from knee height for black and white adults and children with application to mobility-impaired or handicapped persons. J Am Diet Assoc. 1994;94:1385-8.. Based on their BMI, patients were classified as malnourished, normal, overweight, or obese. The classification for people up to 60 years old is BMI (kg/m2) below 18.4 - malnourished; 18.5 to 24.9 - normal; 25.0 to 29.9 - overweight; ≥30 - obese. For those 60 years or older, the classification is BMI below 21.9 - malnourished; 22.0 to 26.9 - normal; 27.0 to 30.0 - overweight; ≥30 - obese.

The patients’ diets had liquid and food consistencies defined for them by the hospital dysphagia treatment team, named in according to the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative - IDDSI1818. Cichero JAY, Lam PTL, Chen J, Dantas RO, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Release of updated International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Framework (IDDSI 2.0). J Texture Stud. 2020;51:195-6.. The limits of these consistencies were evaluated with the IDDSI-FDS99. Steele CM, Namasivayam-MacDonald AM, Guida BT, Cichero JA, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Creation and initial validation of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Functional Diet Scale. Arch Phys Med Rehabil . 2018;99:934-44..

Continuos data were analyzed by the Wilcoxon and McNemar tests. Categorical data were analyzed by Fisher’s exact test. A non-parametric test was performed when appropriate. Continuos data were presented as mean, standard deviation, and median, and categorical data as absolute frequency. Results with P<0.05 were considered statistically significant.

RESULTS

The study assessed all adults patients with CP and dysphagia at the institution. They were 56 patients institutionalized for more than 10 years - 27 men (48%) and 29 women (52%), aged 25 to 71 years, mean of 44 (12) years in December 2015. All patients received oral feeding, with restrictions and consistencies defined by hospital professionals who cared for the patients, and diets prepared by the nutrition service. Six patients also received enteral diets via nasoenteral tubes.

The patients’ mean weight in December 2015 was 51.9 (16.8) kg, with a median of 47 kg, ranging from 28.6 kg to 113.0 kg. In December 2016, the same patients weighed 51.7 (16.0) kg, with a median of 48 kg, ranging from 29.3 kg to 110.0 kg - which indicates no difference between the two assessment moments (P=0.13). There was no difference in nutritional status between 2015 and 2016 (Table 1, P=0.22). In general, the limits of the patients’ modified diets IDDSI-FDS were not different between 2015 and 2016 (Table 2, P=0.40).

The limits of each patient’s diet consistency were related to the nutritional status (P=0.04) - the less restrictive the consistency, the better the nutritional status (Table 3).

Also, the assessments of dysphagia (P=0.03) and functional eating level (P=0.01) were related to the nutritional status (Table 4) - the more severe the dysphagia and the worse the functional level of eating, the worse the nutritional status. The same could be said of the comparison between GMFCS and the nutritional status, although it did not reach statistical significance (Table 4, P=0.07).

Patients with more intense dysphagia according to PARD had more food consistency restrictions(Table 5, P=0.01).

TABLE 5

There were no differences in FOIS and PARD measures between December 2015 and December 2016 (P>0.05). Hence, the 2015 results were presented.

DISCUSSION

No significant change was found in the patients’ nutritional status between the assessments made in December 2015 and December 2016. Dysphagia assessment and food ingestion capacity were related to nutritional status impairment.

The relationship between greater difficulties to ingest food and nutritional status impairment was demonstrated in children with CP1919. Dutra EF, Gomes AF, Yamamoto RBC, Benedetti FJ, Martins JS, Vargas CL. Cerebral palsy: association between nutritional status and occurrence of oropharyngeal dysphagia. Rev CEFAC . 2019;21:e-5519.. More severe dysphagia makes ingestion difficult regarding the composition and quantity of foods necessary to maintain an adequate nutritional status. Dysphagia assessment results are determining factors when deciding what diet is permitted to each patient. IDDSI-FDS99. Steele CM, Namasivayam-MacDonald AM, Guida BT, Cichero JA, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Creation and initial validation of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Functional Diet Scale. Arch Phys Med Rehabil . 2018;99:934-44. was developed to complement the IDDSI food consistency classification1818. Cichero JAY, Lam PTL, Chen J, Dantas RO, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Release of updated International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Framework (IDDSI 2.0). J Texture Stud. 2020;51:195-6.; it results from restrictions indicated to each dysphagic patient by the professionals who treat them. It does not establish specific consistencies for each patient, but the limits in their diet consistencies related to the severity of dysphagia. In the IDDSI-FDS classification, lower numbers indicate greater diet consistency restrictions99. Steele CM, Namasivayam-MacDonald AM, Guida BT, Cichero JA, Duivestein J, Hanson B, et al. Creation and initial validation of the International Dysphagia Diet Standardisation Initiative Functional Diet Scale. Arch Phys Med Rehabil . 2018;99:934-44..

It is possible to find adequate diets for patients with oral ingestion capacity and control their ingestion, despite limitations caused by the disease, which is done in the institution where patients were hospitalized. Nonetheless, 30% of patients were underweight. The ingestion of the diet prescribed for these patients is not often followed2020. Brown MC, Marciniak CM, Garrett AM, Gaebler-Spira DJ. Diet quality in adults with cerebral palsy: a modifiable risk factor for cardiovascular disease prevention. Dev Med Child Neurol . 2021;63:1221-8.; therefore, it must be more rigorously surveilled. There may be deficiencies related to micronutrients, as observed in children2121. Carman KB, Aydin K, Aydin BK, Cansu A, Direk MC, Durmus S, et al. Evaluation of micronutrient levels in children with cerebral palsy. Pediatr Int. 2022;64:e-15005., which must be assessed to avoid complications.

Even though no differences were found in the nutritional status between 2015 and 2016, the analysis of patients per group showed that the number of malnourished subjects decreased from 17 to 11, and that of obese individuals decreased from 7 to 5. This suggests that the nutritional status of some of them was adjusted, indicating that a more attentivefollow-up of prescribed diet ingestion can improve the nutritional status - a possibility that has been suggested in previous studies2222.

Nutritional status impairment in patients with dysphagia due to inadequate ingestion of modified diets66. Vucea V, Keller HH, Morrison JM, Duizer LM, Duncan AM, Carrier N, et al.

Texture-modified diets are associated with poor appetite in older adults who are admitted to a post-acute rehabilitation hospital. J Am Med Dir Assoc. 2021;22:1960-5., especially because of appearance, consequently decreasing the amount of ingested food2525. Razalli NH, Cheah CF, Mohammad NMA, Manaf ZA. Plate waste study among hospitalized patients receiving texture-modified diet. Nutr Res Pract. 2021;15:655-71.. These deficiencies in long institutionalizations can impair the nutritional status. Adjustments in food presentation and preparation may have an important role in better acceptance of diets, as there have been positive results2222. Rondanelli M, Faliva MA, Peroni G, Perna S, Gasparri C, Fazia T, et al.

Deciding on a diet prescription and following it with each patient are important because when ingestion capacities are exceeded, aspiration pneumonia is more likely to occur2626.

Relationship between survival and oral status, swallowing function, and oral intake level in older patients with aspiration pneumonia. Dysphagia. 2022;37:558-66..

Diet consistency modifications are not the only factor that causes malnutrition. The importance of dysphagia in patients’ overall status is directly related to difficulties in feeding. Another factor that may affect nutrition is the impaired neural control of the digestive system, which may change the motor, secretion, and absorption functions2727.

Triadafilopoulos G. Nonobstructive dysphagia in reflux esophagitis. Am J Gastroenterol. 1989;84:614-8. and affect food ingestion.

The benefits of a modified diet to prevent aspiration in patients with oropharyngeal dysphagia have not been fully clarified yet and may not be the expected ones3434. O’Keeffe ST. Use of modified diets to prevent aspiration in oropharyngeal dysphagia: is current practice justified? BMC Geriatr. 2018;18:167.. Nevertheless, its prescription is grounded on what is already known about swallowing in neurological patients. Further evidence is needed to better understand its benefits.

This investigation has limitations. Food ingestion was not quantified, complications during the one year between evaluations was not controlled, and it was not possible to assess meal acceptance, given the patients’ limitations. The nutritional status was assessed only with BMI. The time between the two assessments (1 year) may not have been enough to demonstrate a worsened nutritional status. Swallowing was not assessed with more precise methods, such as videofluoroscopy or nasal endoscopy, because of the patients’ limitations and the unavailability of radiologic and/or endoscopic equipment to perform examinations. Even with these limitations the results are important. Professional care and assistance to dysphagic patients may prevent malnutrition.

In conclusion, the nutritional status did not worsen in this group of adult patients with CP assessed with a 12-month interval, whose diet had restrictions according to their swallowing ability. The severity of dysphagia and diet restrictions interfere with the nutritional status of adult patients with CP.
