dc.description.abstractMalnutrition is a major concern for patients admitted to Intensive Care Units both globally and in developing countries, and is associated with poor clinical outcomes such as prolonged length of hospital stay, increased mortality, and complications. Quick and simple nutrition screening methods can help to direct nutrition therapy in the intensive care unit. Ethiopia currently lacks validated tools for conducting nutritional screening among critically ill patients. The need for a validated tool to assess malnutrition risk, and the potential benefits it offers among critically ill patients in Ethiopia are the driving forces behind this study
