Despite being much contributed by poor diet infections as HIV and TB tend to be major cause to these children. Objectives: To determine underlying and complications attributed to SAM, how to diagnose and manage severe acute malnutrition. Methodology: This was a prospective observation study involving from 1 months to 59 months admitted at malnutrition ward at Bugando medical centre from August 22 to September 22 who were followed from admission to know on how comprehensive management to malnutrition is well provided and how the children responded to therapy complication which arise and how to manage them. Implication of the study: At the all period, we learned to diagnose children with severe acute malnutrition and the management of acute complications of SAM, how to transfer them from one phase of management to another depending on their response to treatment. Most of children came with hypoglycemia and hypothermia were very lethargic and needed immediately care and responded quickly after management, those with diarrhea and vomiting spent more days in stabilization phase than those without these conditions and plump nuts were good in weight gain during rehabilitation phase and children loved them.
