Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A patient’s blood pressure is 120/50 mmHg. Find the mean arterial pressure MAP = (SBP + 2·DBP)/3, to the nearest whole mmHg.
Clinical assessment scores worksheet with answers
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 77 kg and is 174 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). Use the NEWS2 chart (SpO₂ scale 1) for these observations: respiration rate 21/min, SpO₂ 93% on supplemental oxygen, blood pressure 106/64 mmHg, pulse 38/min, alert, temperature 35.5 °C. What is the NEWS2 total score?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient after a head injury opens the eyes spontaneously, talks in sentences but is confused and shows as the best motor response: withdraws the limb from pressure (normal flexion). Work out the GCS and classify the head injury by it. Click your answer.
