AB  - The  importance  of  providing  adequate  nutrition  as  an  adjunct  to  medical  care  was  identified  as  early  as  the  era  of  Hippocrates.  The  prevalence  of  malnutrition  in  the  hospitalized  patient  was  largely  ignored  until  1974  when  Butterworth  published  his  landmark  paper  entitled  “The  Skeleton  in  the  Hospital  Closet.”  30%  to  50%  of  hospitalized  patients  are  malnourished  upon  admission,  and  they  tend  not  to  improve  nutritionally,  and  frequently  worsen,  while  hospitalized.
