Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Charting by exception (CBE) focuses on documenting deviations from predefined norms, standards, or expectations. The nutritional care plan would be included in CBE documentation to highlight any deviations from the planned nutritional care, rather than routine measurements or assessments like height, weight, BMI, estimated energy requirements, dietary assessment data, or results of physical exams, which are typically documented comprehensively elsewhere.
