perforation or stricture of the esophagus, and Barrett’s Esophagus

Estimated Needs
Hamwi Method
106 lbs + 6(9)= 160 lbs IBW
160 lbs/2.2= 72.7 kg
IBW + 0.25 (usual- IBW)= 160 + 0.25 (215-160)= 173.75 lbs
173.75 lbs/2.2= 79.0 kg

Actual Needs with Activity Factor
REE= 10 x wt(kg) + 6.25 x ht(cm) – 5 x age (yrs) + 5
= 10 x 79 kg + 6.25 x 175.3 cm – 5 x 48 + 5
= 790 + 1095.6 – 240 + 5
= 1650.6 kcal
TEE= REE x activity factor
1650.6 x 1.6=2641 kcal
~2600-2700 kcal needed to maintain weight

Foods to Steer Clear From…
Bad Food Choices
Caffeine/Tea
Chocolate
Chips
Fried Foods
Foods High in Fat
Carbonated beverages
High Fat milk products
Alcohol
Medication
❖ Take Omeprazole in the AM because it is a
proton pump inhibitor, which means it will
block H+, K+-ATPase enzymes
❖ Decrease aspirin to 75 mg and stop taking
ibuprofen because these medications have an
effect on the stomach and will decrease the
lining in the stomach causing GERD.

Nutrition Diagnosis
PES #1: Excessive energy intake (NI-1.3) related to being
mildly obese as evidenced by patient’s 24-hour recall, weight
of 215 pounds, and BMI of 31.8.
PES #2: Physical inactivity (NB-2.1) related to a sedentary
lifestyle as evidenced by self-report of only activity is playing
with children on the weekends.
Nutrition Intervention
Diet/Nutrition:
Instruct client on 3000 kcal diet for 3 months and then 2600 kcal diet for 3 more
months. Educate Mr. Nelson and his wife about healthy meal options, portion
sizes, methods of cooking, and benefits of eating at home. Provide client with a
“Foods to Avoid” list that will help alleviate symptoms of GERD.
Physical activity:
Introduce client to physical activities that are easy on his knee, such as swimming,
and parking a little further away from the entrance at work. We will also refer Mr.
Nelson to a physical therapist to help him with knee discomfort. Once he is painfree, we can implement a “step-plan” of 3,000 steps/day, increasing by 500
steps/week.
Nutrition Monitoring/Evaluation
Monitor patient compliance with intervention:
★ Food journal--kcal, fat, sodium, total saturated fat
★ Physical activity journal
★ Cholesterol, HDL, LDL, TG, BMI, BP
Compare this data to his initial visit.
Have client email logs to dietitian before meetings and
call about their progress on a weekly basis.
