Course Outcome

≥93% of participants will strengthen their ability to recognize and correctly diagnose malnutrition in clinical practice.

Course Objectives

After completing this course, the participant will be able to:

  • Recognize the limits of common screening tools like BMI and albumin, and identify when they may miss malnutrition.
  • Apply established diagnostic frameworks to classify malnutrition based on underlying cause and clinical context.
  • Understand targeted physical assessment to detect muscle loss, fat depletion, and micronutrient concerns.
