During your assessment, you ask Hilda what dietary restrictions (if any) she has been following for her hypertension and diabetes. What type of historical information does this provide? Lab history Medical history Social history Diet history 2. What questions about her social history would be important to know in your nutrition assessment? Who lives with her to help with cooking and shopping. What foods she is getting on her trays. How many pregnancies she had. If she had prior surgeries. 3. Which physical assessment finding in the case study is the most accurate indicator of fluid imbalance in her body? %IBW = 223% Presence of edema Low water intake reported prior to admission Low albumin 4. Which labs would be most helpful to use with your physical assessment to identify her fluid status? Serum electrolytes Glycated hemoglobin (HA1C) Red Blood Cell count Serum proteins 5. What would be the most important nutrition problem to address if we are concerned about her healing post open heart surgery? Malnutrition History of hypertension Medication history Obesity 6. Since high blood sugars can impair healing and increase infection risk, which lab should be requested to determine if her blood sugars are currently in range? Blood Urea Nitrogen C-reactive protein Glycated hemoglobin (HA1c) Serum glucose 7. Which of the following assessment measures in the case study identifies the risk of malnutrition? Hilda’s edema dilutes lab values. Hilda is NPO for one day prior to surgery. Hilda’s %UBW of 91% indicates significant weight loss. Hilda’s %IBW of 223% shows excess weight. 8. What another measure could be obtained to strengthen the assessment for malnutrition? Physical assessment of head, hands, and upper body to identify muscle loss. Prescribed medications to identify interactions. C-reactive protein to identify signs of inflammation 9. Which statement would be an appropriate measurable goal for Hilda’s weight after surgery? Hilda will be placed on a calorie control diet to maintain her weight. Hilda will lose two pounds per week. Hilda will maintain her weight between 285-295 pounds. Hilda will improve her oral intakes to increase weight back to 320 pounds. 10. To meet the goal of maintaining Hilda’s weight, what intervention would be appropriate for the nurse?

CASE STUDY 3.1 Anna Marie's Tale Exercise can be bad for you - or at least it is for Anna Marie. She and her husband Mark already have two delightful children, full-time jobs, and hectic schedules. Mark wants more children, but Anna Marie is dead set against it. Mark refuses to use contraception and has made Anna Marie promise not to use any, either. Anna Marie makes the promise because she thinks she can avoid pregnancy by staying at her weight of 210 pounds. At this weight, Anna Marie seldom has a menstrual period and figures the odds of conception are slim. For 2 years, Anna Marie's plan for avoiding conception has worked. Now that the children are older, Anna Marie finds she has a bit of free time, which she uses to indulge her love of swimming. Within months of beginning her program of swimming regularly, however, Anna Marie abandons it. Her menstrual periods have become regular, and her contraception method is lost. Anna Marie's weight at 210 pounds has remained stable during the months she has been swimming. It appears that her improved level of physical fitness and body fat has improved her fertility status. Questions 1. What was likely the reason for Anna Marie's infertility when she was inactive? 2. Give an example of a hormonal change that may have occurred after Anna Marie began exercising regularly. 3. Name a possible health consequence related to Anna Marie's high weight and lack of menstrual cycles.

Jennifer is a freshman and plays shortstop on her college softball team. Her coach thinks that she has the skill to start at shortstop her sophomore year. She is thin and has a hard time hitting home runs, despite consistently hitting over .325 for the past three seasons of play in high school. She and her coach feel that if she were to gain some muscle mass and strength, her home-run hitting would improve, thus securing her a starting position next year. However, Jennifer is concerned about gaining too much weight. She decides to consult with the sports dietitian at her college to develop a plan to gain muscle mass and a small amount of weight. 1. What information would you like Jennifer to bring to the first consultation session? 2. How do you determine whether Jennifer is ready to make the changes in dietary intake needed to produce weight gain? 3. What type of follow-up and continued nutrition consultation would you recommend for Jennifer?
