Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Patients in emergency settings might become malnourished. There are different ways to identify the group as 'at risk' of malnutrition. There are also several different ways to measure outcomes. This pilot study will look at patients undergoing emergency laparotomy, investigate relationships between different selection criteria and outcome measures, and test feasibility of outcome measure collection.
