Question
Mr. Mitch Igan, 60YOM, had a CVA. He is NPO and a NGT was placed. IVF
are at 75 mL/hr.
• Height is 5 feet 6 inches = 66 inches = 167.64 cm = 1.7 m
• Current weight = 143 lbs =
IBW 142 lbs = 64.5 kg
• BMI = 23.1
65 kg
• Estimated kcal needs = 1625 to 1825 kcal/day (25 to 28 kcal/kg)
.Estimated protein needs = 73 to 83 grams protein/day (1.2 gm/kg)
• Estimated fluid needs = 1850 to 2050 mL/day (30 ml/kg)
You receive a consult for EN recommendations. You decide to use Jevity 1.2:
18 gm
fiber/L
1.2 kcal/mL
80.7% free water
55.5 gm protein/L
169.4 gm CHO/L 39.3 gm fat/L
100% RDIs for vitamins met with 1000 mL/day
one carton contains 240 mL
a) What is your recommendation for the hourly rate (mL/hr) of Jevity 1.2?
b) What is the goal volume in liters (to two decimal places)?
c) How many kcal will the goal volume provide? How many kcal/kg?
d) How many grams of protein will the goal volume provide? How many
gm/kg?
