SUMMARY:

ABSTRACT

Introduction: Hospital malnutrition is diagnosed in the hospital, either on admission or

during hospitalization. The prevalence of hospital malnutrition in Brazil is about 7,5% to

45,6%. Among all age groups, malnutrition in children and adolescents is considered a serious

problem of public health. The most common causes of hospital malnutrition in most

hospitalized children are associated with an underlying health condition; reduced absorption

of macro and/or micronutrients; increased losses and altered demands; increased energy

expenditure, procedures that require fasting, and, time to achieve the full diet. During

childhood and adolescence, periods which are characterized by fast growth and physical and

intellectual development, these being particularly vulnerable to external factors, the

nutritional status influences well-being, leading to important changes in quality of life.

Nutritional therapy (NT) can help improve the health results of hospitalized patients with

uniform definitions and nutritional support prioritization as part of the care.

Objective: Understand parents’ or guardians’ perception of nutrition therapy used in

hospitalized children and adolescents supported by a Multidisciplinary Nutritional Therapy

Team (MNTT). Method: This is a qualitative study based on the phenomenology of Martin

Heidegger, using the semi-structured interview as a data collection technique. The final

sample was 14 respondents. The study respondents were family members of children and

adolescents who were hospitalized and accompanied by the MNTT in a hospital in

Divinópolis/MG. Partial results: the data collection analysis was performed by the

comprehensive analysis technique. 25 thematic axes emerged, of which 3 were selected

because they best answered our research question: 1- understanding about the contributions of

NT, 2- feelings related to NT, 3- difficulties and facilities in NT. Through these axes, it is

expected to structure the discussion and understanding of the phenomenon.
