520 Severely malnourished children need special care. This
book provides simple, practical guidelines for treating
these children successfully and takes into account the
limited resources of many hospitals and health units in
developing countries. It is intended for doctors, nurses,
dietitians and other health workers with responsibility
for the medical and dietary management of severely
malnourished children, and for their trainers and
supervisors. The guidelines are authoritative and
hospitals using them report substantial reductions in
mortality. For example, mortality rates of 30-50% have
fallen to 5-15%. The instructions are clear, concise, and
easy to follow. The aim is to help improve the quality of
inpatient care and so prevent unnecessary deaths
