Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 75 kg and is 189 cm tall. Find the body mass index BMI = weight (kg)/height (m)². Round to one decimal place.
Clinical assessment scores worksheet with answers
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 101 kg and is 197 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 20/min, SpO₂ 94% on room air, blood pressure 150/90 mmHg, pulse 70/min, alert, temperature 35.5 °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: very limited; moisture: very moist; activity: bedfast; mobility: no limitation; nutrition: adequate; friction and shear: problem. Find the Braden total B.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). The team aims for a mean arterial pressure of at least 65 mmHg. A patient’s systolic pressure is 107 mmHg. Using MAP = (SBP + 2·DBP)/3, what is the lowest diastolic pressure DBP that still gives a MAP of 65 mmHg?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). The team aims for a mean arterial pressure of at least 70 mmHg. A patient’s systolic pressure is 96 mmHg. Using MAP = (SBP + 2·DBP)/3, what is the lowest diastolic pressure DBP that still gives a MAP of 70 mmHg?
Answer key
- 1. BMI = 21 kg/m²
- 2. BMI = 26 kg/m²
- 3. NEWS2 = 2
- 4. B = 13
- 5. DBP = 44 mmHg
- 6. DBP = 57 mmHg
