Predictive Validity of Level II Nutrition Screen Items for Post Hospitalization Weight Loss and Hypoalbuminemia
1996
Abstract LEARNING OUTCOME: To identify three key elements of the Level II Nutrition Screen (LII) that predict post hospitalization (p-hosp) weight loss or hypoalbuminemia. This study examined the predictive validity of LII items for p-hosp weight loss and hypoalbuminemia in 96 male and female Medicare patients. Subjects were already at "nutritional risk" at hospital discharge (D/C) based on serum albumin ≤ 3.5 g/dL (80%) or weight
