Using K/DOQI guidelines, > 35 kcal/kg (using adjusted body weight) for individuals under the age of 60: 70.75 x 35 = 2476 kcal. This should include the kcal provided by dialysate.
ABW: 70.75 kg; 2476 - Will need to adjust to accommodate kcal form dialysate.
SBW: 61 kg; 2135 kcal- Will need to adjust to accommodate kcal form dialysate.
Using K/DOQI guidelines, 1.2-1.3 g protein/kg (using adjusted body weight): 70.75 x 1.2-1.3 = 85-92 grams with 50% HBV.
85-92 g protein (ABW); 73-79 g protein (SBW)
