Ninety\u2010eight percent of adult and 93% of pediatric respondents indicated a registered dietitian completed the nutrition assessment following a positive nutrition screen. Variables most frequently used among adult respondents included usual body weight, ideal body weight, and body mass index. Among pediatric respondents, weight\u2010for\u2010age and height\u2010for\u2010age percentiles and length\/height\u2010for\u2010age percentile were most frequently used. Both adult and pediatric respondents indicated use of physical assessment parameters, including muscle and fat loss and skin assessment. Eighty\u2010seven percent of adult and 77% of pediatric respondents indicated they are using the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics (Academy) and ASPEN Consensus Malnutrition Characteristics for Adult and Pediatric Malnutrition, respectively. Overall, 97% of respondents indicated nutrition assessment documentation was completed via an EHR. Of all respondents, 61% indicated lack of clinical decision support within their EHR.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec><jats:sec><jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title><jats:p>This survey demonstrated significant use of the Academy\/ASPEN malnutrition consensus characteristics.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1002\/ncp.10179","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2018,8,8]],"date-time":"2018-08-08T08:53:51Z","timestamp":1533718431000},"page":"711-717","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":10,"title":["Hospital Nutrition Assessment Practice 2016 Survey"],"prefix":"10.1002","volume":"33","author":[{"given":"Kris M.","family":"Mogensen","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Nutrition Brigham and Women's Hospital  Boston Massachusetts"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Sandra","family":"Bouma","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Pediatric Cystic Fibrosis and Gastrointestinal Clinics C.S.
