目的我们旨在开发、测试和描述详尽的家庭食品清单（EHFI），该清单通过扫描通用产品代码（UPC）和EHFI软件来测量家庭中的食物，将代码与食品身份和能量值联系起来。设计在每个家庭中进行最多三次重复测量的观察性设计，总共产生了218份清单。设置北卡罗来纳州的80个私人家庭。对象是有婴儿的低收入非裔美国妇女，年龄在20岁之间。 12 个月和 18 个月。招募率为 71 %。结果使用 EHFI 方法成功记录了约 12 200 种不同的食品。家庭内的平均食品数量为 147 种。与测量的家庭的后三分之一相比，前三分之一的家庭首次测量所需的时间从 157 分钟减少到 136 分钟 (P < 0·05)。在进行了3次评估的64户家庭中，所需时间从145分钟减少到97分钟，每项时间从1·10分钟减少到0·73分钟。结论使用UPC扫描记录家庭中的所有食物和饮料是可行的。需要进一步开发和增强将 UPC 与食品标识、营养素和其他信息联系起来的数据库。
ObjectiveWe aimed to develop, test and describe the Exhaustive Home Food Inventory (EHFI), which measures foods in the home using scanning of the universal product code (UPC) and EHFI software to link codes to food identities and energy values.DesignObservational design with up to three repeated measures in each household yielded a total of 218 inventories.SettingEighty private households in North Carolina.SubjectsLow-income African-American women with an infant between the ages of 12 and 18 months. Recruitment rate was 71 %.ResultsApproximately 12 200 different food items were successfully recorded using the EHFI method. The average number of food items within a household was 147. The time required for the first measurement in a home declined from 157 to 136 min (P < 0·05) for the first third compared to the last third of homes measured. In the sixty-four households in which three assessments were performed, the time required decreased from 145 to 97 min as did the time per item from 1·10 to 0·73 min.ConclusionsIt is feasible to record all foods and drinks in the home using UPC scanning. Further development and enhancement of databases linking UPC to food identification, nutrients and other information are needed.
