Filnut-escala: justificación y utilidad en el cribaje de riesgo por desnutrición dentro del proceso infornut

Total proteins lower than 5 g/dl determine a medium or high risk of malnutrition where a complete nutritional screening profile is lacking. This is why it should be included in the FILNUT-Scale with a score of five points. Performing the MUST test on patients with five or more points is efficient and provides clinical data needed for a complete assessment.
