2007年,英国与疾病相关的营养不良的估计成本超过13英镑×10(9)英镑。在任何时候,在300多万有营养不良风险的人中,只有约2%在医院,5%在疗养院,其余在社区(2-3%在庇护所)。一些政府统计数据(英格兰)严重低估了入院和出院时营养不良的流行率(1998年至2008年每年1000-3000人),这还不到全国调查所确定的流行率(2007-2008年约300万人)的1%,该调查使用的标准是“营养不良通用筛查工具”(“MUSH”)。根据政府统计数据(2007年英格兰有242人死于营养不良),与营养不良有关的医院死亡的发生率也是
In 2007, the estimated cost of disease-related malnutrition in the UK was in excess of 13 pound x 10(9). At any point in time, only about 2% of over 3 million individuals at risk of malnutrition were in hospital, 5% in care homes and the remainder in the community (2-3% in sheltered housing). Some government statistics (England) grossly underestimated the prevalence of malnutrition on admission and discharge from hospital (1000-3000 annually between 1998 and 2008), which is less than 1% of the prevalence (about 3 million in 2007-2008) established by national surveys using criteria based on the 'Malnutrition Universal Screening Tool' ('MUST'). The incidence of malnutrition-related deaths in hospitals, according to government statistics (242 deaths in England in 2007), was also
