Abstract: ABSTRACT INTRODUCTION: Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease (COPD) significantly impacts global health, characterized by persistent respiratory symptoms and progressive airflow limitation, often complicated by malnutrition. Malnutrition is frequently overlooked yet significantly affects disease progression, functional capacity, and patient prognosis. Early detection using validated nutritional assessment tools such as the Mini Nutritional Assessment (MNA) can potentially lead to better management strategies. OBJECTIVE: To assess the effectiveness of the MNA tool in identifying malnutrition among COPD patients and compare it with traditional methods like Body Mass Index (BMI).
