摘要
In a study of eighty-nine consecutive admissions to an acute and rehabilitation ward of a geriatric department, the majority (75%) had weights within the acceptable range. 7% were overweight and 8% were obese. Dependency levels and outcome of admission were independent of weight and body mass index.
