1. An 82-year
old female has suffered a massive stroke and significant paralysis
on her left side. She is currently receiving a tube feed. The RDN
has decided to try Compleat, a commercially available blenderized
tube feeding formula and feed the patient in bolus feeds in hopes
that will help with her recovery.
How many g of
water will the bolus feeds of Compleat provide each
day?
Each 250 ml of
Compleat has 265 kcal, 18% protein and 207 g water.

Compleat meet her fluid needs?
a. no
