A Client's Temperature Has Been 38

question 12

Short Answer

A client's temperature has been 38.8°C (101.8°F) for several days. The client's normal caloric intake to meet nutritional needs is 2 000 calories per day. Knowing that the metabolic rate increases 13% for every 1°C (33.8°F) increase in temperature above 37.8°C (100°F) in body temperature, calculate the total calories the client should receive each day.
