half-life

in blood tests, refers to the length of time that a substance remains in plasma. The albumin in plasma has a half-life of 14 to 20 days, meaning that half of the amount circulating in plasma is degenerated in this time period.

expected outcomes

patient oriented goals that are derived from nursing diagnoses.

food frequency questionnaire disadvantages

1. Relies on memory 2. Food lists are limited only including common foods. 3. Serving sizes can be difficult to evaluate by patients. 4. calculated nutrient intakes not accurate 5. food lists of gen population not work in smaller pops 6. Can't monitor short changes in diet

food record advantages

1. does not rely on memory 2. Recorded as foods consumed so great accuracy 3. process helps control intake of food choices because keeping records increases awareness

food frequency questionnaire advantages

1. long term intake "daily/season changes doesn't-effect" 2. Questionnaire after intakes so methods doesn't effect 3. Method is inexpensive

Direct observation advantages

1. process doesn't rely on memory 2. method doesn't influence food intake 3. method can be used to evaluate the acceptability of a prescribed diet

Direct observation disadvantages

1. process possible only in residential situations 2. method is labor intensive.

food record disadvantages

1. recording process influences diet choices 2. underreporting/error of portion sizes 3. time consuming/burdensome/need motivated patient 4. Patient must be able to read and write 5. Seasonal changes in diet are not taken into account

Direct observation

Observation of meal trays or shelf inventories before and after eating; possible only in residential facilities. Nurses use direct observations to conduct patient's calorie counts, which are estimates of food energy often protein consumed by patients in a single day or several consecutive days. To do it nurses record the dietary items that a patient is given at meals and subtracts the amounts remaining after meals are completed.
