Severe Acute Malnutrition: Acute form of MALNUTRITION which usually affects children, characterized by a very low weight for height (below -3z scores of the median World Health Organization standards), visible severe wasting, or occurrence of nutritional EDEMA.

Do not confuse with starvation, a condition in which the body is not getting enough food, usually for extended periods of time.
