%X Se realiz¨® un estudio descriptivo y prospectivo de 11 pacientes con fibrosis qu¨ªstica, atendidos en la consulta integral del Hospital General Docente "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" de Santiago de Cuba, desde mayo de 2011 hasta febrero de 2012, para evaluar el estado y el ¨ªndice de riesgo nutricionales, seg¨²n el protocolo de evaluaci¨®n para estos casos, a partir del Consenso de Norteam¨¦rica (2005). Se utiliz¨® el m¨¦todo estad¨ªstico de comparaci¨®n de proporciones. La mayor¨ªa de los afectados fueron clasificados como desnutridos (63,6 %), todos presentaron riesgo nutricional por bajo peso y 3, desnutrici¨®n proteicoenerg¨¦tica severa (27,6 %); tambi¨¦n se obtuvo que m¨¢s de la mitad tuvieron mayor morbilidad e ingresos en el per¨ªodo evaluado. Finalmente, el m¨¦todo de evaluaci¨®n nutricional fue muy ¨²til para determinar grado y tipo de desnutrici¨®n, pues el diagn¨®stico precoz y la intervenci¨®n nutricional oportuna mejoran la calidad de vida. A descriptive and prospective study of 11 patients with cystic fibrosis, assisted in the comprehensive department of "Dr. Juan Bruno Zayas Alfonso" Teaching General Hospital in Santiago from Cuba was carried out from May, 2011 to February, 2012, to evaluate the status and the nutritional risk index, according to the evaluation protocol for these cases, from the Consensus of North America (2005). The statistical method for comparison of ratios was used. Most of those affected were classified as undernourished (63.6%), all presented nutritional risk due to underweight and 3 had severe protein energy malnutrition (27.6%); it was also obtained that more than half had higher morbidity and admissions in the evaluated period. Finally, the method of nutritional evaluation was very useful to determine degree and type of malnutrition, because the early diagnosis and the opportune nutritional intervention improve the life quality.
