Calculate energy and protein requirements for Mrs. Rodriguez

What will be an ideal response?


Using Harris Benedict:
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 W (kg) + 1.9 S (cm) - 4.7 A (yrs)
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 x 50 kg + 1.9 x 157.48 cm - 4.7 x 38 yrs
REE = 1246.9 ≈ 1300 kcal
TEE = 1246.9 x 1.2 (PA) x 1.3 (SF) = 1945.2 ≈ 1950 kcal; range of 1900-2000 kcal/day

OR use 30-35 kcal/kg American Chest Physician's nomogram
50 x 30 = 1500 kcal ; 50 x 35 = 1750 kcal

EPR = (1.2-1.5 g/kg) = 1.2-1.5 ? 50 = 60-75 g pro/d
