Sir,The recent report on malnutrition in a tertiary care hospital is very interesting.[1] Chakravarty et al., concluded that “almost two-fifth of patients admitted were malnourished in this tertiary care hospital and that there is an urgent need to develop a comprehensive nutritional care program in many such Indian intensive care units.”[1] In fact, the nutritional problem is a common thing, but forgotten for the admitted patients in any settings. The important issue is the concern on the care provider on the nutritional status of patients.[2] A recent report by Kowanko et al. showed an important problem that “although nurses considered nutritional care to be important many had difficulty in raising its priority above other nursing activities, as a result of time constraints and multitasking issues.”[3] There should be a system for nutritional assessment of all admitted patients and special individualized plan should be set. Reid and Allard-Gould reported that “adequate nutritional screening and interventions have been demonstrated to be cost-effective resulting in fewer complications, faster recovery, shorter hospital stays and reduced hospital expenditures.”[4]
