Abstract: | Malnutrition affects on average 20–50% of hospital inpatients and its negative repercussions in terms of morbi-mortality have been fully documented. Although this state of affairs is well known, there is little screening for malnutrition in hospitals. There is no single parameter indicating malnutrition, which instead has to be diagnosed based on anthropometric and biological data, and by multi-factorial indices of nutritional risk. Screening adapted to each of the four main classes of hospital care, acute medicine and surgery, intensive care, geriatrics and paediatrics needs to be systematically performed for every inpatient. To make malnutrition screening a natural part of the practice of care, we need to design training courses, which highlight the benefits in terms of length of stay, morbi-mortality and cost. |
