Abstract: Problems of malnutrition-undernutrition, specific deficiency and imbalance, are often substantial causes of illness and death in developing regions of the world. The aim is to direct the field worker, medical officier, nutritionist and public health nurse in obtaining the maximum of useful information using a minimum of staff, inexpensive equipment and uncomplicated techniques that can be analyzed easily. Methods are given for assessing the nutritional status of a community, especially by means of prevalence surveys, and in particular the clinical, anthropometric, biochemical and dietary procedures that can be employed in difficult circumstances often found in developing regions of the world.
