Abstract
This population-based study found modest agreement between ICD-10 codes for undernutrition compared to a standard method (Nutritional Risk Screening 2002) as documented in medical doctors' records in Danish hospitals. Diagnoses of undernutrition contained in hospital discharge registries should be used with caution.
