About this study

Official title: The Effect of 12 Weeks of Nutritional Supplementation on Nutritional Intake and Status in Older Outpatients With Malnutrition Risk

The primary outcome is the mean difference in energy and protein as well as a selection of micronutrients (calcium, vitamin D, and Vitamin B12) after 12 weeks of intervention between standard care plus nutritional supplementation vs standard care.

The secondary outcomes are body weight, nutritional status, body composition, physical performance, vitamin D level, and nonelective hospitalization

The Study Hypothesize:

The hypothesize that outpatients who receive nutrient-dense drinks (NDD) will have increased body weight, better nutritional status, better body composition, higher vitamin D level, better physical performance and reduced non-elective hospitalization than those receiving standard care after 12 weeks of intervention.

Read the detailed description
  1. Study Design: Randomized Controlled Trial, Randomized and controlled intervention trial with 2 treatments in parallel
  2. Treatment 1: nutrient-dense drinks on top of standard care
  3. Treatment 2: standard care only (reference)

  7. Data collection : Energy and nutrient intake, particularly protein calcium, vitamin D, and vitamin B12, Nutritional status based on full form Mini Nutritional Assessment, Vitamin D level, lean body mass (using Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis), physical performance will be measured by Shor Physical Performance Battery, handgrip strength, medical history, data on the demographic status and clinical data will be retrieved from the medical record and the attending physicians, body weight and anthropometric measurements, intervention: Nutrient Dense-Drink + Standard Care

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Changes of Energy in Kilocalories

    Dietary intake will be measured using 3-day dietary food records, 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day)

    Measured: at baseline and week 12

  2. Changes in Protein intake in grams

    Dietary intake will be measured using 3-day dietary food records, 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day)

    Measured: at baseline and week 12

  3. Changes in Fat intake in grams

    Dietary intake will be measured using 3-day dietary food records, 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day)

    Measured: at baseline and week 12

  4. Changes in carbohydrate intake in grams

    Dietary intake will be measured using 3-day dietary food records, 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day)

    Measured: at baseline and week 12

  5. Changes in micronutrients intake in micrograms

    Dietary intake will be measured using 3-day dietary food records, 2 weekdays and 1 weekend day)

    Measured: at baseline and week 12

Secondary outcomes (9)
  1. Changes of Mini Nutritional Status Score

    The nutritional status will be measured by full form mini nutritional assessment, individuals can be divided in 3 groups using threshold values of <17 for malnourished, 17-23,5 for at risk of malnutrition and ≥ 24 for normal nutritional status with a maximum total score of 30 points

    Measured: at screening (Week 0) and week 12

  2. Changes of Vitamin D level

    Vitamin D level as a parameter of nutritional status will be measured by the direct competitive chemiluminescence microparticle immunoassay (CMIA) method

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

  3. Changes of Body Weight

    Body weight will be measured in the fasted state to the nearest 0.1 kg with a calibrated digital scale

    Measured: Screening (week 0) and Week 12

  4. Changes of Skeletal Muscle Mass

    Skeletal Muscle mass will be measured by Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA) recorded in Kg

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

  5. Changes of Short Physical Performance Battery Score

    Physical performance will be measured by Short Physical Performance Battery, which is measured by scores from Gait speed, chair stand test, and balance test

    Scoring for complete Short Physical Performance Battery

    Category Scores :

    0 - 6 points : poor performance 7-9 points : moderate performance 10-12 points : good performances

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

  6. Changes of Handgrip Strength

    Handgrip strength will be measured by a handgrip dynamometer (recorded in Kg)

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

  7. Number of the Participants with Rehospitalization

    Non-elective hospitalization will be recorded by medical history

    Measured: 3 months (12 weeks)

  8. Gait Speed

    Outcome recorded in seconds for Baseline, and the Changes (Delta) in 12 weeks

    Additionally, results will be converted into score, which will be used for final SPPB scoring

    3 meter walk: The score is, If time is more than 6''52 sec : 1 point If time is 4"66 to 6"52 sec : 2 points If time is 3"62 to 4"65 sec: 3 points If time is less than 3"62 sec:4 points

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

  9. Changes to Chair Stand Test

    Outcome recorded in seconds for Baseline, and the Changes (Delta) in 12 weeks

    Additionally, results will be converted into score, which will be used for final SPPB scoring

    Participant unable to complete 5 chair stands or completes stands in >60 sec : 0 points If chair stand time is 16"70 sec or more: 1 points If chair stand time is 13"70 to 16"69 sec: 2 points If chair stand time is 11"20 to 13"69 sec: 3 points If chair stand time is 11"19 sec or less: 4 points

    Score will be used for final SPPB scoring

    Measured: Screening (Week 0) and week 12

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Nutrient-dense drink in people with Malnutrition, run by Universitas Indonesia at 2 sites in Indonesia.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 27 Aug 2024. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 2 sites in Indonesia. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Changes of Energy in Kilocalories (time frame: at baseline and week 12). The study lists 5 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 27 Aug 2024.
