Malnutrition is one of factors that affect outcome of critically ill children. Objectives: The aim of this study was to assess accuracy of BMI and NRS (STRONGKIDS) in assessment of malnutrition risk and relation of malnutrition to outcome of mechanically ventilated critically ill children Methods: Nutritional status using STRONGKIDs score and bmi of 101 mechanically ventilated children in pediatric intensive care units at Cairo university pediatric Hospital was assessed. Outcome (mortality, hospital acquired infections, and length of PICU stay and ventilation) was followed up to detect its correlation with malnutrition. Results: Percentage of malnutrition depending on BMI Z-score was 39.6%, nutritional status depending on STRONGKIDS score showed low risk of malnutrition 17.8%, moderate risk of malnutrition 65.4% and high risk of malnutrition was 16.8%. There was significant correlation between STRONGKIDS score with BMI z-score with p-value 0.007. Also, there was significant correlation between malnutrition (assessed by BMI and STRONGKIDS score) and HAI with p-value 0.05 and 0.035 respectively there was also inversely significant correlation between malnutrition (assessed by BMI) and period of ventilation P-value 0.02
