Our aims was identify the patient who requires EN by sounding at Clinical Medical admission. METHODS: From 11/2001 to 11/ 2002; 331 patients were attended in cornrnon rooms. 50  of them (15%) required EN. Retrospective descriptive study was made, evaluatlng: dernographic data, diagnoses, comorbilities, self-validity, staying, nosocornial  complications, studies, medicaments, inter-consulting and mortality as well. RESULTS: In  50 patients under EN, 56 % were men, with an age rate of 65 years Standar Error (SE) 2.37  and daily life activity rnecllurn rate was 2 (SE) 0.35. Diagnoses at admission: Strocke 22%,  acute pneurnonia of community 22%, pneurnonia by bronchoaspiration 10%, acute  confusional syndrorne 10%, etc.. Comorbilities: 54% presented 3 or more concurrent  diseases, Hypertension 60 %.
