Background: Malnutrition is of importance factors that cause the increasing of hospitalization duration and effects on the development of main diseases. Therefore, we are going to assess the nutritional indices among ICU impatients.Methods: Height, weight, received necessary energy for subjects were measured. Also circumference of mid-arm and body temperature was measured twice within a week interval. Biochemical indices including Albumin, Creatinine, counting of Lymphocytes, Sodium, Potassium, Phosphorus and Magnesium were measured. Among qualitative indices, kind of disease, infection, bedsore, taking oral ventilation and the kind of nutrition can be mentioned. Analysis of data has been carried out by SPSS16 software.Findings: Energy intake in 61% of ICU impatients is less than their energy needing and just 39% of them had sufficient energy intake. Serum potassium, magnesium and albumin were in normal range. The mean of creatinine level was higher than the normal range. The most type of nutrition that they take the energy by it was Gavaj about 54%. The most common cause for hospitalization in this ward has concerned about all kinds of surgery, especially post-accident surgery including driving accidents surgery.Conclusion: ICU impatients have been exposed to hospital malnutrition and need special nutritional care.Key Words: Malnutrition, Nutritional Assessment, ICU Impatients
