Question 1 of 5
Using the client's height of 72 inches and weight of 200 lbs, the nurse calculates the BMI. A BMI of 27 indicates which category for this patient?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Overweight. A BMI of 27 falls within the overweight category based on the BMI ranges. The formula for BMI is weight in kilograms divided by height in meters squared. In this case, the client's weight is 200 lbs (90.7 kg) and height is 72 inches (1.83 meters). Calculating BMI (90.7 / (1.83 * 1.83) = 27), which falls between 25-29.9, indicating overweight.
Choice B is incorrect as Obesity Class I starts at BMI 30.
Choice C is incorrect as normal weight is typically BMI 18.5-24.9.
Choice D is incorrect as plain "Obesity" usually starts at BMI 30.
