When a resident has been on weights and needs change to MUAC can the MUST score on the profiling page be removed please. The last MUST score from weights is showing which is not accurate and it will raise questions from other's, even though the resident has been having a stable MUAC over the last 6 months.

MY QUESTION TO YOU WAS:

There is a lady that we cannot weigh, so we use MUAC, which shows us a score of 2. However, her profiling page shows us a MUST score of 4. She was weighed up until 7/12/2025 and did lose weight and was severely underweight; her MUST then was 4; however, her MUAC has been between 19 and 20 since then (6months). Why is it still showing a MUST score of 4 on her profiling page?

YOUR ANSWER:

Unfortunately, as this resident previously had a MUST assessment and score in place, which appears on their profile, our system is not currently configured to account for a change to MUAC. If you would like to submit an idea for a new feature or a change to an existing feature, please go to the ‘ideas’ option at the top right of the system screen and select ‘View ideas forum’ from the drop-down menu.
