This observational study aims to evaluate the prevalence of malnutrition among adult patients hospitalized at Pitié-Salpêtrière Hospital on a specific day. It utilizes a malnutrition questionnaire to gather data according to the criteria set by the High Authority for Health for different age groups. The study also incorporates focus groups to gain deeper insights into the management of malnutrition in this setting. The findings will help update the understanding of malnutrition prevalence since the last survey conducted in 2015.
