Malnutrition Rate in Stroke Patients on Admission

摘要

Malnutrition is frequently observed in patients with acute stroke and its prevalence after stroke varies widely among published reports. Differences in the timing of assessment, stroke type, comorbid medical conditions, and stroke complications may have contributed to this large variability. This study is conducted to investigate the prevalence of malnutrition, and its associated risk factors in stroke patients admitted to our stroke clinic.
