Extract:
Question 1 of 5
A nurse is calculating the protein needs of a client who is a physical trainer. The client weighs 220 lb and requires an increase of protein by 2.0 g/kg/day. The client has taken 0.8 g of protein/kg/day in the past. How much total protein/day should the nurse recommend?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: 220 lb = 100 kg; past intake = 0.8 g/kg/day (80 g); increase = 2.0 g/kg/day (200 g); total = 80 + 200 = 280 g/day.
