Her diagnosis is determined to be Marasmic Kwashiorkor. The second case is of a 24 year old male weighing 125 lbs after being held prisoner on a south sea island by 15 women, with an albumin of 3.5 and transferrin of 175. His diagnosis is determined to be Marasmus. Both patients are assessed to have nutritional deficiencies requiring energy, protein, carbohydrates, fat, vitamins and minerals.

    experience. On admisiion her albumin is 2.0 and transferrin is 100.

    Question :
    a. What is her IBW ?
    b. Calculate her % of IBW ?
    c. What is BMI ?
    d. What is her nutritional diagnosis ?
    e. Defined nutrients requiremen ?

    Answer :
    a. IBW = 45,4 + (H*-152) x 0,89
    IBW = 48,07 kg
    b. Actual BW/IBW = %IBW
    40 kg/48kg=83 % IBW
    c. BMI = BW (kg)/BH(m2)= 40/(1,55)2 = 16,6
    d. Her diagnosis is Marasmic Kwashiorkor
    e. Nutrient requirement :
    - Energy, protein, carbohydrate, fat
    - Micronutrient : vitamins, minerals

    Question :
    a. What is her IBW ?
    b. Calculate her % of IBW ?
    c. What is BMI ?
    d. What is her nutritional diagnosis ?
    e. Defined nutrients requiremen ?

    Answer :
    a. IBW = 48 + (H*-152) x 1,06
    IBW = 67 kg
    b. Actual BW/IBW = %IBW
    47kg/67kg=70 % IBW
    c. BMI = BW (kg)/BH(m2)= 47/(1,7)2 = 16,3
    d. Her diagnosis is Marasmus
    e. Nutrient requirement
    - Energy, protein, carbohydrate, fat
    - Micronutrient : vitamins, minerals
