摘要

A standardized set of values for estimating energy, protein requirements, and defining pediatric malnutrition have been established. These calculations and criteria for malnutrition evaluation can be used in multiple care settings in clinical practice. The optimization of nutrient intake in the setting of malnutrition is critical to prevent long-term developmental delays and poor outcomes.
