Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
This descriptive study will serve three aims:
* Register in the cancer patient's electronic medical record their nutritional status at the admission and when the patient is discharged.
* Determine the percentage of malnourished patients or in the risk of malnutrition who are admitted to hospitalization.
* Recognize the number of patients that required specialized nutritional care.
The purpose of this study is to determine if 30% of the patients admitted to the headquarters of SOLCA in Guayaquil from the Ecuadorian Cancer Society are at malnutrition risk or with any specific malnutrition level.

The NRS 2002 screening tool will be used to collect data and register the electronic medical record of each patient according to their nutritional status.
The variables to be recorded in an online Excel shared sheet (Google Drive) are weight, height, BMI, age, cancer diagnosis, associated comorbidities.
For weight determination, a scale (mechanical or electronic) in good condition will be used
