Complications associated with malnutrition include a greater incidence of infections and pressure sores and longer lengths of hospital stays.

Clinical nutritional management requires effective methods of assessment, an understanding of the underlying causes of nutritional deficiencies, and effective methods of administering nutrients via feeding techniques and supplementation.
