Opinions and practices of healthcare professionals on assessment of disease associated malnutrition in children: Results from an international survey.
Clinical Nutrition(2019)
Abstract
HP who routinely assess and treat children with DAM identified ongoing weight loss, increased losses, increased requirements, low intake and high nutritional risk conditions as the most important clinical indicators of DAM. These clinical indicators should now serve as a basis to form clinical-based criteria for the identification of DAM in routine clinical practice. Low awareness, lack of guidelines or local policy and lack of resources were the most important barriers of routine screening.
