Slide 13 — Diagnostic criteria (practical thresholds)

• Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) in children 6–59 months: any one of
  • WHZ < −3 SD, or
  • MUAC <115 mm, or
  • Presence of bilateral pitting edema
• Moderate acute malnutrition (MAM): WHZ between −2 and −3, or MUAC 115–125 mm

Slide 4: Epidemiology (Global Burden)

• Affects ~50 million children under 5 worldwide
• Responsible for ~1 million child deaths annually
• Highest prevalence in Sub-Saharan Africa and South Asia
• Contributes to 45% of all child deaths (indirectly via increased infection risk)
