Enteral Calculations

For each of the following orders, calculate the amount of kcals, protein and free water provided

Free WaterKcalsProtein

1.Probalance full strength @ 75 ml/hr______

2.Magnacal full strength @ 50ml/hr______

3.F.A.A. ½ strength @ 90ml/hr______

4.Crucial full strength @ 80ml/hr______

5.A patient requires ~2200 kcals, and 2000ml free water per day. You have selected Probalance as the formula.

a.Calculate the minimum rate the TF would have to be infused to meet kcal needs

b.How much protein will this provide?

c.How would you start and advance this TF?

d.How much additional water would have to be given to meet the patients free water

needs?
