The nutritionDay (nDay) project, supported by ESPEN, conducts a global audit to evaluate nutritional risks. Imam Reza Teaching Hospital in Mashhad is one of the participating hospitals. This study examined the trend of nutritional adequacy in Imam Reza Teaching Hospital from nDay ۲۰۱۹ to ۲۰۲۱. Method: This cross-sectional study analyzed data collected from the nDay database of Imam Reza Teaching Hospital in Mashhad, Iran, between ۲۰۱۹ and ۲۰۲۱. Written consent was obtained, and the study followed international standards and the nDay questionnaire. Factors such as nutritional routs, energy goals, and energy intake were considered. All statistical analyses were performed using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences version ۱۹.۰. The three-year trend of nutritional adequacy was compared using the Chi-Square test. Result: A total of ۴۱۴ patients from ۱۴ departments of Imam Reza Hospital were included in the study during ۲۰۱۹-۲۰۲۱.
