Diagnosing undernutrition children and adults: new French criteria. Why, for what and for whom? A joint statement of the French National Authority for Health and French Federation of Nutrition

Jacques Delarue et al.

Summary: This article describes the process of establishing new diagnostic criteria for undernutrition for the French population, incorporating a multi-disciplinary working group, four phases of procedure, and specific criteria for diagnosis and grading severity. The new French recommendations integrate recent international proposals and are concordant for children and adults for the first time, maintaining the WHO threshold of BMI <18.5 as a phenotypic criterion due to increased mortality risk.
