Explanation
G (Gravida) — Total number of pregnancies, including the current one.
Elective abortion at 9 weeks
Birth of twins at 36 weeks
Spontaneous abortion at 15 weeks
Current pregnancy at 28 weeks So, G = 4.
T (Term births) — Number of pregnancies carried to 37 weeks or beyond.
-
- She hasn't had any pregnancies reach full term. So, T = 0.
P (Preterm births) — Number of pregnancies delivered between 20 and 36 weeks.
-
- Twins born at 36 weeks. So, P = 1.
A (Abortions) — Number of pregnancies ending before 20 weeks (spontaneous or elective).
-
- Elective abortion at 9 weeks
- Spontaneous abortion at 15 weeks So, A = 2.
L (Living children) — Number of living children.
-
- The twins are living children. So, L = 2.
Putting it all together, her GTPAL notation is G4 T0 P1 A2 L2.
Correct Answer is ["179.6"]
Explanation
To calculate the total protein/day that the nurse should recommend, we need to use the following formula:
Total protein/day = (Current protein intake + Increase in protein intake) x Weight in kg
The current protein intake is given as 0.8 g/kg/day, and the increase in protein intake is given as 20 g/kg/day. To convert the weight from pounds to kilograms, we need to divide by 2.2, so 220 lb / 2.2 = 100 kg.
Plugging these values into the formula, we get:
Total protein/day = (0.8 g/kg/day + 20 g/kg/day) x 100 kg Total protein/day = (20.8 g/kg/day) x 100 kg
Total protein/day = 2080 g/day
However, we need to round this answer to the nearest tenth, as per the instructions, so we get:
Total protein/day = 179.6 g of protein/day
