Answer to Question 1

 Weight
 Abnormal lipid profile
 High blood pressure (if still high after recovery)

Answer to Question 2

 Weight:
100 mL per kg body weight for 1st 10 kg
50 mL per kg body weight for next 10 kg
20 mL per kg body weight for each kg above 20 kg
1000 + 500 + 1100 = 2600 mL fluid
 Age & weight:
55-65 years: 30 mL per kg body weight per day
30 x 75 = 2523 mL
 Energy needs: 1 mL per kcal = 1619 x 1  1600 mL
