    Currently, nutritional screening tools help identify the nutritional risk in pediatric patients to implement an effective and timely nutritional strategy. Information was collected from the procedures conducted during the healthcare activity, and nutritional screening tools were applied. Finally, both tools were compared. According to the STAMP tool, 76% of the pediatric population was classified as having a high risk of malnutrition, compared to the STRONGKids tool, which classified only 36% as high risk. However, both tools proved valid for determining the nutritional status of pediatric patients, as the Pearson correlation applied for validity testing was significant for both tools.
