Product description

Review

I would recommend this book to all health care professionals involved in nutritional assessment in acute and community settings. Students from a variety of disciplines would also find the book an extremely good reference guide to nutritional assessment. ― Journal of Human Nutrition and Dietetics, Vol 19

4.0 out of 5 stars Principle of Nutritional Assessment - How useful it is.

Ideal methods of nutritional assessment are sensitive and specific. Unfortunately, it is difficult to achieve both in the assessment of nutritional status. Sensitivity refers to the ability of a technique to correctly identify those affected by a condition (for example, under-nutrition) as having that condition. Specificity refers to the ability of a technique to correctly classify normal individuals as having normal nutritional status. Body mass index is a global measure of nutritional status that illustrates the difference between these two constructs. Most persons who consume insufficient energy have low body mass index, so the measure is sensitive. However, there are other causes of low body mass index, including genetics and disease, so body mass index is not specific to nutritional status. The above are what I wanted to understand before I made the purchase and fortunately this book clearly in the most simple terms gave good insight into these issues thereby assisting me to have a good stepping stone to proffering solutions to diverse nutritional assessment problems.
