But, energy and nutrients intake of hospital meals in most patients is still low. Some patients not only consume energy and nutrients from hospital meals, but also from non-hospital meals, parenteral nutrition, and supplement. Pearson’s correlative test shows that there is no significant correlation between age and Body Mass Index (BMI) (p = 0,537; r = -0,117), age and energy requirement (p = 0,129; r = -0,283), and age and level of energy intake from hospital meals (p = 0,574; r = 0,111). Spearman’s correlative test shows that there is no significant correlation between amount of disease and BMI (p = 0,466; r = -0,138). | en |
