Cаse Study # 2GS is а 25 yо wоmаn whо was recently diagnosed with celiac disease. She was admitted to the hospital with severe weight loss, extreme fatigue, and diarrhea. A small bowel biopsy reveals a diagnosis of celiac disease with secondary malabsorption. She states, I have lost a tremendous amount of weight, and I have been having terrible diarrhea for awhile now. I don t even have the energy to get off the couch right now. She recently delivered a 5 lb 2 oz healthy son at 39 weeks gestation. She states that she gained 11 lb during this pregnancy but has since lost about 30 lb. She now weighs 92 lb. Her greatest non-pregnant weight was 112 lb just prior to this pregnancy. She started out breastfeeding her son but stopped 3 weeks ago because she felt so bad. She is 5'3" tall. Refer to Case Study # 2- Consider GS's nutritional status. Calculate her kcaloric needs. Show your calculations and rationale for factors. BEE = 655 + (9.6 x kg) + (1.8 x cm) - (4.7 x age); consider AF (1.2-1.3) and SF (1.1-1.6) Is she a candidate for nutrition support? Why or why not?
