caloric requirement for a patient with third degree burns on 50% of his body (stress
factor 1.7). The patient is a 58 year old male who weighs 190 pounds and measures
5'11" in height. Activity factor is 1.2. The BEE for this patient is 1,764 kcal/day,
calculated using the Harris-Benedict equation. (Answer must be numeric; no units or
commas; round final answer to the nearest WHOLE number.) - CORRECT ANSWER-

Answer
,A
5 mL potassium phosphate and 22 mL potassium chloride
B
15 mL potassium phosphate and 14 mL potassium chloride
C
10 mL potassium phosphate and 18 mL potassium chloride

Question:
On February 16th, Mr. Steinberg was off the floor for procedures and tests most of the
morning and his 1 liter bag of IV fluid + KCl was not started until 1300. The physician
wants the patient to receive the entire 20 mEq of potassium today. What rate (mL/hr) sh
- CORRECT ANSWER-91
By the time the 1 liter bag is hung at 1300, there are 11 hours left in the day: 1,000 mL /
11 hours = 90.909 mL/hr (round to 91 mL/hr per instructions). Potassium chloride is a
high-risk medication. Always verify that a safe concentration and rate are being infused
based on the type of line available and clinical status of the patient.

Martin Syde is a 73 year-old male who weighs 205 pounds. What is his CrCl using the
Cockcroft-Gault equation? (Answer must be numeric; no units or commas; round final
answer to the nearest WHOLE number.)
Labs:
Na (mEq/L) = 140 (135 - 145)
K (mEq/L) = 4.5 (3.5 - 5)
Cl (mEq/L) = 101 (95 - 103)
HCO3 (mEq/L) = 25 (24 - 30)
BUN (mg/dL) = 20 (7 - 20)
SCr (mg/dL) = 1.4 (0.6 - 1.3)
Glucose (mg/dL) = 122 (100 - 125)
Ca (mg/dL) = 8.9 (8.5 - 10.5)
Mg (mEq/L) = 2.1 (1.3 - 2.1)
PO4 (mg/dL) = 3.1 (2.3 - 4.7)
A1C (%) = 9.8
INR = 0.9 (0 - 1.2) - CORRECT ANSWER-62
Pg. 41
Since the patient's height is not provided in the case, the only weight available to use in
the Cockcroft-Gault equation is the patient's total body weight.
