Clinical assessment scores worksheet with answers

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 66 kg and is 198 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 after a head injury does not open the eyes at all, makes no sounds and shows as the best motor response: no movement at all. Find the Glasgow Coma Scale total GCS = E + V + M.

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: no; secondary diagnosis: no; ambulatory aid: none, bed rest or nurse assists; IV therapy or saline lock: yes; gait: normal, bed rest or wheelchair; mental status: overestimates or forgets 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 8/min, SpO₂ 97% on supplemental oxygen, blood pressure 78/46 mmHg, pulse 132/min, responds only to pain, temperature 36.7 °C. What is the NEWS2 total score?

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?
