Abstract
Nutritional status greatly affects the health of patients, yet the time devoted to nutrition curriculum in medical school is minimal. We implemented a novel approach of teaching the Nutrition Focused Physical Exam (NFPE) as a tool to demonstrate the importance of assessing the nutritional status of patients and learning about malnutrition and nutrient deficiencies.Entities:
