Marasmus Lecture in Hindi | Protein Energy Malnutrition for NORCET & NEET PG

Master everything you need to know about Marasmus for your upcoming NEET PG and AIIMS NORCET exams. In this lecture, we break down Severe Acute Malnutrition on Marasmus pathology, etiology, and clinical features.

We look into the exact points examiners love to test: why it primarily affects infants under 1 year of age, how it represents a simultaneous deficiency of both total calories (energy) and proteins, and the physiological reasons behind extreme muscle wasting and loss of subcutaneous fat.

We also review the classic diagnostic presentation—including the distinct "old man / wizened" facial appearance, dry loose skin folds, sunken eyes, a voracious appetite, and the crucial diagnostic marker: the absolute absence of edema. This session is completely exam-oriented, packing in official WHO criteria like Mid-Upper Arm Circumference / MUAC guidelines and previous year clinical questions to ensure your concepts are flawless.
