Previous issue date: 2013-03-19 / Background: Given the importance of identifying nutritional needs, dietary intake of centenarians and other oldest old groups has been studied on several prospects, dietary patterns of the oldest old as well as predictors of nutritional deficiency in this population. Objective: To evaluate the nutritional status of the oldest old. Methods: An observational, cross-sectional, descriptive and analytical with the oldest old. The study population consisted of elderly aged over 90 years living in Porto Alegre. The nutritional assessment was conducted analyzing dietary parameters, such as 24 hours Food Recall and Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ). We also checked the anthropometric, biochemical and socioeconomic characteristics. Results: We evaluated 44 elderly, 33 (75%) women and 11 (25%) men. The oldest old respondents, 31 (72%) did not need financial assistance to buy food, but only 31% purchased or participated in the acquisition of food. Participation in the preparation of their own meal was 29.5%, and 20.5% said the longevity prepare your meal without assistance. Men had a higher socioeconomic status than women, with significant p = 0.0174. It was verified low calcium intake, fruit and vegetables and high consumption of sweet foods and drinks. Conclusion: In this study we found that most of the oldest patient was outside the nutritional risk and total caloric intake of the oldest was adequate. However we observed some important micronutrient deficiencies. In this case, the oldest of nutritional assessment was of paramount importance, since it allows developing strategies for implementing nutritional interventions directed in order to meet the demands of this population and consequently generate improved quality of life. / Introdu??o: O consumo alimentar de centen?rios e popula??es de vida longa tem sido estudado sobre v?rias perspectivas dado a import?ncia de se identificar as necessidades nutricionais, os padr?es alimentares bem como os fatores preditores de defici?ncia nutricional em longevos. Objetivo: Avaliar o estado nutricional de idosos longevos. Metodologia: Estudo observacional, transversal, descritivo e anal?tico com idosos longevos. A popula??o estudada foi composta por idosos com idade igual ou superior a 90 anos, residentes em Porto Alegre.
