Abstract
The study presents a survey of the basic methods used in the diagnosis of malnutrition in the elderly such as nutritional anamnesis, anthropometrical, laboratory a functional examinations and indicating specific differences as compared with a younger population. The examinations we presented are simple, non-invasive methods, which can we use especially for out-patient monitoring of geriatric patients to recognize nutrition disorders.
