Answer to Question 1

Energy Requirements:
(9.99 x actual weight ) + (6.25 x height) (4.92 x age) 161
(9.99 x 72.7) + (6.25 x 167.64) (4.92 x 57) 161
726.3 + 1047.75 280.44 161
1329 or 1300 kcal
Energy needs = REE x AF x IF = 1300 x 1.4 = 1861-1994
seated work w/requirement to move but little strenuous leisure activity
no injury factor

Protein Requirements:
72.7 kg x 0.8-1.0 g/kg = 58-73 g of protein

Answer to Question 2

Altered nutrition-related laboratory value potassium and phosphorous related to AKI as evidenced by serum K 5.7 mEq/L and serum PO4 5.3 mg/dL.
Malnutrition related to critical illness/hypercatabolism as evidenced by inadequate energy intake for previous 7 days, preorbital and tricep fat wasting, and temporal muscle wasting.
