RATIONALE (required section):

1. Discuss reasons for including each abnormal lab:
Abnormally low red blood cells, hemoglobin, and hematocrit indicate anemia
and blood loss (internal bleeding from unspecified location) (1). The patients
doctors ordered an iron supplement and noted that they will pay close attention to
these levels. Elevated troponin related to non-ST elevated myocardial infraction.
BUN above normal levels could be caused by uncontrolled DM and/or recent MI.
Elevation of glucose levels and low HDL cholesterol show the patients
noncompliance with prescribed diets.
2. Discuss justification for choosing method of calculating needs (specify
equations & references used):
In the hospital, it is customary to use 25-30 kcal/kg as an estimate of energy
needs. When a patient is obese (this patient presents with a BMI of 44.95 kg/m2)
we use adjusted body weight for energy. This comes to 1820-2200 kcal per day.
Protein is calculated at 1-1.25 g/kg actual body weight for wound healing on lower
extremities and chronic condition of congestive heart failure as per the Nutrition
Care Manual (2). Fluid recommendations were also obtained from the Nutrition
Care Manual for congestive heart failure. Because this patient presents with CHF
and widespread edema, 1400-1900 ml per day should be provided.
