Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). An adult weighs 119 kg and is 189 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 opens the eyes spontaneously, is oriented to person, place and time and shows as the best motor response: moves a hand to the site of pressure (localises).
