1 CEU (CDR & CBDM)
Fee: Complimentary
How do you know your program is doing well?
Each year 25% to 50% of patients admitted to the hospitals are malnourished in emerging and developed nations. The negative outcomes associated with malnutrition in the hospital are well documented.
By identifying and assessing patients at risk of malnutrition, clinical issues can be addressed early and avoid negative and costly outcomes.
Understanding your prevalence is the first step to achieving improved outcomes related to malnutrition.
Learning Objectives:
This educational webinar will explain what the prevalence malnutrition audit is and why it is the vital next step to any malnutrition program. Learn how you may be able to implement these into your own organization for improved clinical and financial benefits.

Identifying and Caring for Pediatric Malnutrition
For many years our focus has been on malnutrition in the adult population but what about the children?
In 2014 the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics and the American Society for Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition published a consensus paper related to identifying and documenting pediatric malnutrition. The consensus paper opens with, “Pediatric malnutrition is estimated to contribute to approximately 45% of all child deaths globally.”
How does malnutrition impact the pediatric population at your facility?
Are your dietitians currently identifying malnutrition in both pediatric and adult populations?
Find out the tools you need to begin addressing and caring for pediatric malnutrition and how it impacts the quality of care you are providing and your hospitals case mix index and bottom line.
