Calculate this patient's total energy and protein needs
What will be an ideal response?
Energy needs: (Harris Benedict)
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 W (kg) + 1.9 S (cm) - 4.7 A (yrs)
REE = 655.1 + 9.6 x 56.8 kg + 1.9 x 160.02 cm - 4.7 x 26 yrs
REE = 1372.9 ≈ 1400 kcal
TEE = 1372.9 x 1.3 (PA) x 1.1 (SF) = 1963.3 ≈ 1950 kcal; range of 1900-2000 kcal/day
OR
American Chest Physician's nomogram: 25-30 kcal/kg: 1420 – 1704 kcal
Protein needs:
56.8 kg x 1.0-1.2 g/kg = 57-68 g/day
