Determine the amount of energy that Mrs. Caldwell's PD prescription will provide each day. How will this affect your nutrition recommendations?
What will be an ideal response?
CCPD daily. Ca 2.50; Mg 0.5, Dextrose 2.5%. Total fills (or exchanges) 3 (3 fills/cycle @2500 mL). Total fill volume/24 hours: 7500 mL.
Estimating intake using a percentage of grams absorbed:
(Grams infused/day of monohydrous glucose) x 3.4 kcal = available kilocalories
Multiply available kilocalories by: 60-70% absorption for CAPD
7.5 L of 2.5%; 10 x 25 g/L = 187.5 g
187.5 g x 3.4 kcal/g x 0.6-0.7 = 382.5-446.25 kcal from CAPD
