Brief Summary  

Cancer is a chronic disease condition that can affect the body metabolism and nutrition. Certain cancers affect muscle mass, body fat and reduce the energy levels leading to cachexia, sarcopenia and fatigue. This study is to assess the nutritional status of cancer patients using a bioelectric impedance analyzer (HBF-352, Omron Health care Co., Kyoto, Japan) and to study its correlation with a Cancer Related Fatigue Score.

People with a diagnosis of cancer, seen in the out patient department or admitted at Day Care for short procedures or treatment will be invited to participate. After getting consent the subject’s nutritional status will be assessed. The Karada Scanner is a simple instrument that is used to measures the patients’ anthropometry through bioelectric impedance. We will administer a Standardized 12 point scale questionnaire to assess the Cancer Related Fatigue.
