Boying: Diarrhea and dehydration (diarrhea and vomiting for 5 days)
Lack protein in the diet
Incomplete nutrition intake
The ordinary height for a 5-year-old is 40 to 45 inches - Boying: 97 cm (38.2 in)
The average weight for a 5-year-old boy is about 16 kg and the average height is about 104 cm. Boying: 10kg
Questions:
What is the nutritional status of the patient? Plot the Z-score and interpret, how did you come up with the z-score
What other pertinent history will you ask?
What are the micronutrients that you think the patient need? Explain your answer.
How are you going to manage the patient? Expound…
