148 kg171 cmBMI = kg/m²BMI = ?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 148 kg and is 171 cm tall. Find the body mass index BMI = weight (kg)/height (m)². Round to one decimal place.

E? / 4+V? / 5+M? / 6GCS?

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient after a head injury does not open the eyes at all, makes only incomprehensible sounds such as moaning 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: crutches, cane or walker; IV therapy or saline lock: no; gait: impaired; mental status: overestimates or forgets limits. Find the Morse total MFS.

Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A practice patient is assessed with the Braden scale: sensory perception: slightly limited; moisture: very moist; activity: bedfast; mobility: slightly limited; nutrition: adequate; friction and shear: potential problem. Find the Braden total B.
