Answer to Question 1

To determine the nutrition prescription, the clinician must first calculate the patient's dosing weight, as well as protein, energy, and fluid requirements. The clinician then identifies the most appropriate type of formula based on the patient's diagnosis. Total energy needs are calculated and then divided by the caloric density of the formula. To determine the goal rate of administration, the clinician divides the total formula volume by the number of hours administered. The starting rate may be lower and then the rate advanced as tolerated to reach the goal rate.
