Summary

This study will present an advanced equipment of tumor nutrition diagnosis and assesment for nasopharyngeal cancer(NPC) radiotherapy patients in nutritional risk screening, evaluation, diagnosis and directing nutritional intervention, aiming to explore the advantages of the whole nutritional management in acute radiation reaction rate, completion rate of radiotherapy, nutritional status, and quality of life for NPC patients.

Detailed description

In this study, nutrition intervention was performed in one group of nasopharyngeal carcinoma patients with no nutritional risk during the periperiod of radiotherapy , and the other group with no additional intervention when without nutritional risks, for evaluating the value of overall nutritional management in the periperiod radiotherapy.

Conditions

• Nasopharyngeal Carcinoma
• Radiation Therapy Induced Change
• Nutrition Disorders

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT	Formula nutrition	The target energy of radiotherapy patients is recommended to be 25-30kcal/(kg·d), and the target energy of the intervention group should be increased by an additional 50% daily from the beginning of radiotherapy. Specifically, under the condition of ensuring the daily target energy 14kcal/(kg·d), formula nutrition should be added daily.
