The basal metabolic rate (BMR) of a person is the daily energy use for a person at rest to keep our essential processes running. An equation for the BMR for a woman is shown below. BMR (kcal) = (4.54 × weight in lb) + (15.9 × height in inches) - (5 × age in years) - 161 Determine the basil metabolic rate of a 136 lb, 5' - 4" 20 year old woman in watts. You will need to convert from kcal to joules.

You have just started working in an Urgent Care Clinic as a nurse. Mom brings in her 3 year old little boy, Brandon. Mom states that Brandon has been having fever up to 104F and he isn't eating or drinking anything because he feels very sick to his stomach, not to mention crabby! He's also been pulling a lot at his right ear and sounds congested. At the last well visit with the Pediatrician (about 2 weeks ago), Mom states that Brandon weighed 32 pounds. On exam today, his weight is 12.5 kg. Additionally his eyes are darkened and sunken, his mouth is dry with some white crusting around the lips. His temperature is 39C, other vitals signs are normal. Though he looks ill he appears to be medically stable. The doctor rushes in, quickly exams Brandon, diagnoses him with otitis media and then barks off orders to you that you then need to convey accurately to Mom. The orders include: push fluids, ibuprofen 10mg/kg every 6 hours if temp > 38C, and begin taking a 10-day course of…
When drinking water is disinfected with chlorine, an undesired byproduct, chloroform (CHCl3), may form. Suppose a 70-kg person drinks 2 L of water every day for 70 years with a chloroform concentration of 0.08 mg/L (the drinking water standard).

Case Studies An 18-year-old male high school student who had a 4-year history of diabetes mellitus was brought to the emergency department because of excessive drowsiness, vomiting. and diarrhea. His diabetes had been well controlled with 40 units of NPH insulin daily until several days ago when he developed excessive thirst and polyuria. For the past 3 days, he has also had headaches, myalgia, and a low-grade fever.

On the average, during the Winter 2022 Olympics and training, a male cross-country skiing athlete eats approximately 7,000 Calories per day. This would be expected to be a very healthy diet (not all ice cream, chips and candy) but Caloric intensive. It takes 3,500 Calories of extra food beyond your normal diet to gain a pound of body mass. If you eat normally eat 2000 Calories per day to maintain your weight, and do not increase your normal exercise, how many kilograms will you gain over the 19 days of the Winter Olympics eating those 5,000 extra Calories per day? Use this conversion 1kg = 2.20462 lb Report your answer to 1 decimal place
