History of ADA’s MNT Guides 1990’s: Medical Nutrition Therapy Across the Continuum of Care (MNTACC) (research-based) 2001 & 2002: MNT Evidence-Based Guides for Practice Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes Type 1 and 2, Gestational Diabetes, Chronic Kidney Disease Hyperlipidemia, Diabetes Type 1 and 2, Gestational Diabetes, Chronic Kidney Disease 2005 & 2006: Evidence-Based Nutrition Practice Guidelines & Toolkits

What’s New? Movement in healthcare towards evidence-based practice More systematic, rigorous process of evidence analysis Use of ADA’s Nutrition Care Process Assessment Assessment Diagnosis Diagnosis Intervention Intervention Monitoring & Evaluation Monitoring & Evaluation Guidelines are a free member benefit on the Evidence Analysis Library Toolkits consist of more resources for application of the Guidelines Oversight by Evidence-Based Practice Committee
4
What are Evidence-Based Nutrition Practice Guidelines? Evidence Summaries & Conclusion Statements = what the evidence says Guideline = course of action for the practitioner based on the evidence
5
What are Evidence-Based Nutrition Practice Guidelines? Definition: A series of guiding statements and treatment algorithms which are developed using a systematic process for identifying, analyzing and synthesizing scientific evidence. They are designed to assist practitioner and patient decisions about appropriate nutrition care for specific disease states or conditions in typical settings. Approved by Evidence-Based Practice Committee, 2006
6
Features of Guidelines Introduction: scope, intent, methods, benefits/harms Introduction: scope, intent, methods, benefits/harms Recommendations: a series of guiding statements that propose a course of action for practitioners Recommendations: a series of guiding statements that propose a course of action for practitioners Algorithms: step-by-step flowchart for treatment of the specific disease/condition Algorithms: step-by-step flowchart for treatment of the specific disease/condition Appendices: food tables, etc. Appendices: food tables, etc.

What are Evidence-Based Toolkits Set of companion documents for application of the practice guideline Disease or condition specific Include: documentation forms documentation forms outcomes monitoring sheets outcomes monitoring sheets client education resources client education resources case studies case studies MNT protocol for treatment of disease/condition MNT protocol for treatment of disease/condition Incorporate Nutrition Care Process as the standard process care Incorporate Nutrition Care Process as the standard process care

Why use these resources? Assist you in: Implementing evidence-based practice Implementing Nutrition Care Process Using recommendations based on a collective body of evidence Training new staff, students and interns Understand treatment for an unfamiliar topic Meeting regulations based on current standards of practice –best practice

Recommendation Example R.5. Blue dye should not be added to EN for detection of aspiration. The risk of using blue dye outweighs any perceived benefit. The presence of blue dye in tracheal secretions is not a sensitive indicator for aspiration.R.5. Blue dye should not be added to EN for detection of aspiration.

Recommendation Rating Strong = Practitioners should follow a Strong recommendation unless a clear and compelling rationale for an alternative approach is present.Strong = Practitioners should follow a Strong recommendation unless a clear and compelling rationale for an alternative approach is present. Imperative = imperative recommendations “require,” or “must,” or “should achieve certain goals,” but do not contain conditional text that would limit their applicability to specified circumstances.Imperative = imperative recommendations “require,” or “must,” or “should achieve certain goals,” but do not contain conditional text that would limit their applicability to specified circumstances.

Statement Rating Definition Implication for Practice Strong A Strong recommendation means that the workgroup believes that the benefits of the recommended approach clearly exceed the harms (or that the harms clearly exceed the benefits in the case of a strong negative recommendation), and that the quality of the supporting evidence is excellent/good (grade I or II).* In some clearly identified circumstances, strong recommendations may be made based on lesser evidence when high-quality evidence is impossible to obtain and the anticipated benefits strongly outweigh the harms. Practitioners should follow a Strong recommendation unless a clear and compelling rationale for an alternative approach is present. Fair A Fair recommendation means that the workgroup believes that the benefits exceed the harms (or that the harms clearly exceed the benefits in the case of a negative recommendation), but the quality of evidence is not as strong (grade II or III). * In some clearly identified circumstances, recommendations may be made based on lesser evidence when high-quality evidence is impossible to obtain and the anticipated benefits outweigh the harms. Practitioners should generally follow a Fair recommendation but remain alert to new information and be sensitive to patient preferences. Weak A Weak recommendation means that the quality of evidence that exists is suspect or that well-done studies (grade I, II, or III) * show little clear advantage to one approach versus another. Practitioners should be cautious in deciding whether to follow a recommendation classified as Weak, and should exercise judgment and be alert to emerging publications that report evidence. Patient preference should have a substantial influencing role. Consensus A Consensus recommendation means that Expert opinion (grade IV) supports the guideline recommendation even though the available scientific evidence did not present consistent results, or controlled trials were lacking. Practitioners should be flexible in deciding whether to follow a recommendation classified as Consensus, although they may set boundaries on alternatives. Patient preference should have a substantial influencing role. Insufficient Evidence An Insufficient Evidence recommendation means that there is both a lack of pertinent evidence (grade V) * and/or an unclear balance between benefits and harms. Practitioners should feel little constraint in deciding whether to follow a recommendation labeled as Insufficient Evidence and should exercise judgment and be alert to emerging publications that report evidence that clarifies the balance of benefit versus harm. Patient preference should have a substantial influencing role.

©2006 American Dietetic Association Disorders of lipid Metabolism Toolkit Encounter Process for Disorders of Lipid Metabolism ENCOUNTER: Initial Encounter 45 to 90 minutes Assessment Obtain the following from client, medical record/information system or clinical referral form within 30 days of encounter. Client History consists of four areas: medication and supplement history, social history, medical/health history, and personal history. Medication and Supplement History includes, for instance, prescription lipid-lowering, antihypertensive, diabetes, and thyroid medications, over the counter (OTC) drugs, herbal and dietary supplements (for example folate, B-complex vitamins, Co-enzyme Q10, those with potential for food/drug interaction), and illegal drugs. Social History may include such items as smoking history, alcohol intake (frequency and amount), socioeconomic status, social and medical support, cultural and religious beliefs, housing situation, and social isolation/connection. Medical/Health History includes chief nutrition complaint, present/past illness particularly of cardiovascular disease, diabetes, thyroid disease, evaluate risk factors for cardiovascular disease, metabolic syndrome, family medical history, especially of premature cardiovascular disease, mental/emotional health and cognitive abilities. Personal History consists of factors including age, occupation, role in family, and education level. Biochemical Data includes laboratory data, for example, lipid profile, glucose, hemoglobin A1C, liver function tests, thyroid, Lp(a), homocysteine, and high-sensitivity C reactive protein.
