, Abstract
Background: Malnutrition is described as deficiencies, excesses or imbalances of energy and
nutrients (WHO, 2020). A lack of awareness exists regarding residents in most healthcare
organisations (Meijers et al, 2009). The prevalence of malnutrition increases up to 85 percent
among nursing home residents (Sahin et al, 2015). Verbrugghe et al. (2013) argues
malnutrition as a risk factor for mortality. Current interventions do not treat malnutrition
effectively. A well-tailored intervention is needed to prevent or reverse malnutrition.
Methods: This systematic review analyses Randomised Controlled Trials aimed at reduction
of malnutrition among nursing home residents. To set up this review, PRISMA guidelines are
followed. Search was done in PubMed. The articles were screened by the researchers and the
included articles were assessed using the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) checklist.
Results: Three articles identified significant positive effects in the intervention group. These
articles used a nutritional education program and Oral Nutritional Supplements (ONS). One
article demonstrated positive effects, but no significant results. Another article showed
significant positive effects in the control group. All five articles were rated as high-quality
studies.
Conclusion: ONS and nutritional education programs are the most effective interventions
aimed at the reduction of malnutrition.
