The aim of this study was to assess the value of nutritional risk screening-2002 (NRS-2002) as a nutritional risk screening and status assessment method and to compare it with nutritional status assessed by subjective and objective methods in the screening of head and neck cancer patients. Sixty-five consecutive patients (50 male), with a median age of 61 years (range, 33-77), with head and neck squamous cell carcinoma (HNSCC) were enrolled prior to cancer therapy. Nutritional status was assessed by NRS-2002, patient-generated subjective global assessment (PG-SGA), handgrip strength (HGS) and mid-arm muscle area (MAMA). Twenty-eight percent of patients were at nutritional risk based on NRS-2002, and 34 % were malnourished according to PG-SGA, while 43 % had low HGS. NRS-2002 cut-off score of a parts per thousand yen3 compared with the nutritional status according to PG-SGA showed 77 % specificity and 98 % sensitivity (K = 0.78). NRS-2002 was able to predict malnutrition (PG-SGA BC) both in men (p < 0.001) and in women (p < 0.05). NRS-2002 identified correctly patients with malnutrition with a score of a parts per thousand yen3 (p < 0.001) and risk patients with a score of a parts per thousand yen2 (p < 0.001). These results suggest that NRS-2002 seems to be a reliable indicator of malnutrition, while NRS-2002 with the cut-off score of a parts per thousand yen2 seems to be more reliable for nutrition screening in head and neck cancer patients prior to oncological treatment.
