Secondary outcome measures were to assess malnutrition prevalence in the CRP<\/jats:styled-content> population and to determine trends between malnutrition and age, body mass index (BMI<\/jats:styled-content>) and falls history.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Methods<\/jats:title>This study used a cross\u2010sectional design. All clients admitted to a Melbourne metropolitan CRP<\/jats:styled-content> during the study period had the MST<\/jats:styled-content> completed at intake. A total of 160 participants were then selected at random and a Subjective Global Assessment (SGA<\/jats:styled-content>) was completed by an experienced dietitian. Participants were classified as well nourished or malnourished, and this result was compared to their MST<\/jats:styled-content> score. Data analysis was completed to determine the predictive value of the MST<\/jats:styled-content> compared to SGA<\/jats:styled-content>, which was expressed using sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Results<\/jats:title>Out of the 160 participants, 34.0% were identified as malnourished. The MST<\/jats:styled-content> achieved a sensitivity of 72.2% and a specificity of 83.8% with positive predictive value of 69.6% and negative predictive value of 85.4% compared to the SGA<\/jats:styled-content>. Participants in the malnourished group were older and had a lower BMI<\/jats:styled-content> (P<\/jats:italic> < 0.05).<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>Conclusions<\/jats:title>Considering the demographics and needs of the CRP<\/jats:styled-content> population group and the predictive value of the MST<\/jats:styled-content> compared to SGA<\/jats:styled-content>, it can be concluded that the MST<\/jats:styled-content> is a valid screening tool for use in this population and has relatively low burden to complete. Consequently, the MST<\/jats:styled-content> could be included in the client initial needs identification to be completed when admitted to the program.<\/jats:p><\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1111\/1747-0080.12365","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,4]],"date-time":"2017-07-04T13:54:34Z","timestamp":1499176474000},"page":"117-122","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1002\/crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":20,"title":["Validation of the Malnutrition Screening Tool for use in a Community Rehabilitation Program"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"75","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2362-9197","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Claire E.","family":"Leipold","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Angliss Hospital Community Rehabilitation Program Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Shaylyn B.","family":"Bertino","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Yarra Ranges Health Community Rehabilitation Program Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Heather M.","family":"L'Huillier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wantirna Health Community Rehabilitation Program Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"},{"name":"Outer East Aged Care Assessment Service Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Paula M.","family":"Howell","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Peter James Centre Community Rehabilitation Program Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Michelina","family":"Rosenkotter","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Wantirna Health Community Rehabilitation Program Eastern Health Melbourne Victoria Australia"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,7,4]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_8_2_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.12968\/bjcn.2004.9.11.16879"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_3_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1747-0080.2009.01383.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_4_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1079\/PNS19990007"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_5_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/S0261-5614(03)00098-0"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_6_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1046\/j.1440-1673.1999.433665.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_7_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1365-277X.2009.01008.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_8_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.eclnm.2007.03.001"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_9_1","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jclinepi.2007.11.008"},{"key":"e_1_2_8_10_1","unstructured":"Malnutrition Advisory Group (MAG) a Standing Committee of the British Association of Parenteral and Enteral Nutrition (BAPEN).
