Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A tube feed with 68 g of protein per litre runs at 35 mL/h for 24 hours a day. How many grams of protein P does the patient receive per day? Round to one decimal place.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A tube feed that provides 1.5 kcal/mL runs at 60 mL/h for 16 hours a day. How many kilocalories E does the patient receive per day?
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). Use the Devine formula to find the ideal body weight IBW of a man who is 172 cm tall (1 in = 2.54 cm). Round to one decimal place.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A woman is 161 cm tall and weighs 73 kg. Find the actual weight as a percentage of the ideal body weight, %IBW, using the Devine formula (1 in = 2.54 cm). Round to the nearest whole number.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A critically ill woman is 171 cm tall and weighs 157 kg. The practice protocol gives 2 g of protein per kg of ideal body weight (Devine) per day if the BMI is 30 to under 40 kg/m², and 2.5 g/kg of ideal body weight per day if the BMI is 40 kg/m² or more. Find the protein goal P in g/day. Round to the nearest whole number.
Practice exercise (made-up values, not clinical guidance). A critically ill man is 189 cm tall and weighs 120 kg. The practice protocol gives 2 g of protein per kg of ideal body weight (Devine) per day if the BMI is 30 to under 40 kg/m², and 2.5 g/kg of ideal body weight per day if the BMI is 40 kg/m² or more. Find the protein goal P in g/day. Round to the nearest whole number.
