Severe acute malnutrition (SAM) remains a critical public health challenge in conflict-affected settings, where children face heightened vulnerability. Dual deficiencies weight-for-height z-score (WHZ < -3) and mid-upper arm circumference (MUAC 11.5 cm) indicate more severe form of SAM, yet current admission protocols prioritize WHZ-based criteria for inpatient therapeutic feeding centers (TFCs). This approach may exclude with MUAC from optimal care, potentially impacting recovery outcomes...
