Nutritional screening is essential for addressing malnutrition and its consequences. However, routine implementation in large hospitals faces several challenges. To overcome these obstacles, the Clinical Nutrition Service of a tertiary hospital developed a technology-assisted nutritional screening system. This study evaluates the system's efficiency in detecting and assessing patients at nutritional risk upon hospital admission. It also examines the association between nutritional risk, clinical outcomes, and sociodemographic characteristics.
