[Malnutrition prevalence at admission to Hospital General Nuestra Se ñora del Prado, Talavera de la Reina].

CONCLUSIONS: in all, 28.8 % of the patients analyzed were at risk of malnutrition or undernourished on admission. Hospital malnutrition continues to be a problem, so it is vitally important that screening methods be included at admission to allow early nutritional intervention in hospitalized patients, and that trained healthcare personnel be incorporated to this end.
