Clinical assessment scores worksheet with answers

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient’s blood pressure is 175/107 mmHg. Find the mean arterial pressure MAP = (SBP + 2·DBP)/3, to the nearest whole mmHg.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 110 kg and is 186 cm tall. Find the body mass index BMI = weight (kg)/height (m)². Round to one decimal place.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient is assessed with the Morse fall scale: history of falling in the last 3 months: yes; secondary diagnosis: no; ambulatory aid: holds on to furniture; IV therapy or saline lock: yes; gait: impaired; mental status: knows own limits. Find the Morse total MFS.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Use the NEWS2 chart (SpO₂ scale 1) for these observations: respiration rate 24/min, SpO₂ 91% on room air, blood pressure 102/62 mmHg, pulse 76/min, alert, temperature 39.6 °C. What is the NEWS2 total score?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient is assessed with the Braden scale: sensory perception: completely limited; moisture: occasionally moist; activity: chairfast; mobility: very limited; nutrition: probably inadequate; friction and shear: potential problem. Use the bands 19–23 not at risk, 15–18 mild, 13–14 moderate, 10–12 high and 9 or below very high. Click the risk level.
