چکیده
Introducción: La aparición de terapias más eficaces para el tratamiento del Síndromes de la Inmunodeficiencia Adquirida (SIDA) redujo la morbi-mortandad y la desnutrición entre los pacientes infectados. Sin embargo, en los casos de desnutrición hospitalaria, son observados reducción de la ingestión alimentaria, mala absorción de nutrientes y alteraciones metabólicas inducidas por fiebre e infecciones. Objetivos: Evaluar el impacto del Suporte Nutricional Oral (SNO) en pacientes hospitalizados portadores de SIDA. Métodos: Se analizaron los siguientes parámetros: peso, índice de masa corporal (IMC), pliegue cutánea tricipital (PCT), circunferencia del brazo (CB), circunferencia muscular del brazo (CMB), albumina, hemoglobina, hematocrito y linfocitos totales séricos. Resultados: Mejora significativa en el peso, IMC, PCT, CB, albumina y linfocitos, tras 19,27 ± 7,45 días de SNO, sin mejora significativa en la CMB, hemoglobina y hematocrito. Conclusión: La intervención dietética con recomendación nutricional y uso de suplementos promovió mejora del estado nutricional de individuos desnutridos con SIDA, pero con aumento del tejido adiposo, sin impacto en la masa magra o anemia.
