1.Easy
145 kg198 cmBMI = kg/m²BMI = ?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 145 kg and is 198 cm tall. Find the body mass index BMI = weight (kg)/height (m)². Round to one decimal place.

145 kg198 cm
BMI = kg/m²
2.Easy
E? / 4+V? / 5+M? / 6GCS?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient after a head injury opens the eyes when spoken to, talks in sentences but is confused and shows as the best motor response: withdraws the limb from pressure (normal flexion). Find the Glasgow Coma Scale total GCS = E + V + M.

3.Medium
mildmoderatesevere

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient after a head injury opens the eyes only to pressure (a painful stimulus), says inappropriate, random words and shows as the best motor response: abnormal flexion of the arms (decorticate posture). Work out the GCS and classify the head injury by it. Click your answer.
