Study Overview
Brief Summary
This project is being conducted with an aim to find out energy expenditure, body composition and recovery rates in children with severe acute malnutrition (SAM) receiving community-based nutritional rehabilitation therapy
Detailed Description
Objectives
- To assess energy expenditure and body composition by stable isotope techniques in children with Severe Acute Malnutrition
- To evaluate the potential usefulness of body composition assessment as a predictor of outcome in children with SAM, based on stable isotope technique and multi-frequency bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA)
