Association between the modifed Nutrition Risk in Critically Ill (mNUTRIC) score and clinical outcomes in the intensive care unit: A secondary analysis of a large prospective observational study

Malnutrition in intensive care unit (ICU) patients is associated with adverse clinical outcomes. The modifed nutrition risk in the critically ill score (mNUTRIC) was proposed as an appropriate nutritional assessment tool in critically ill patients, but it has not been fully demonstrated and widely used. Our study was conducted to identify the nutritional risk in ICU patients using the mNUTRIC score and explore the relationship between 28-day mortality and high mNUTRIC scores.
