Opis

Cleveland Children's Clinic developed this handbook for conducting a nutrition-focused physical exam (NFPE) of pediatric patients. Fully illustrated, this handbook assists bedside clinicians in nutrition assessment, helping discern the presence and degree of malnutrition. Most healthcare disciplines perform a physical exam and a NFPE should be part of the nutrition clinician's skill set. Techniques and tips that can be used in daily practice when examining patients, as well as charts and references, are provided.
