Pediatric and Neonatal Malnutrition: A Collaborative, Family-Centered Approach Improves Outcomes
DOI:
https://doi.org/10.17140/PNNOJ-6-e008Abstract
Assessment of nutritional status and ensuring adequate nutrient intake are essential components of health care for infants and children who are ill. Pediatric malnutrition is defined as “an imbalance between nutrient requirement and intake, resulting in cumulaive deficits of energy, protein, or micronutrients that may negatively affect growth, development, and other relevant outcomes.
