Interpretation:
The BMI for person under given 5ft 1in. tall and weighs 155lb should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Body mass Index (BMI): It is explain that a person’s weight in kilograms divided by the square of height in meters, a high BMI can be indicated of height body fitness. Than BMI could be used to screen for weight categories that may lead to health problems but is not diagnostic of the body or health of an individual person’s.

- R.V. is a 6 year-old male brought to the free health clinic by his mother. She reports that R.V. is getting ready to start kindergarten and the kindergarten teacher noticed that “he seemed to struggle with some of those questions and stuff they ask on the kindergarten testing.” Upon exam, the physician notes that R.V. appears short for his age (107 cm), but weighs 25 kg (95th percentile). R.V.’s neurological exam is normal, although the physician notes that he seems developmentally closer to a 4 year-old and is not yet able to fully recite his ABCs or count to 20. His respiratory and cardiac exam are normal. His genitourinary exam reveals a normal scrotum, but undescended testicles bilaterally. Select a potential diagnosis for R.V. and describe the pathophysiology of that diagnosis. How does the pathophysiology explain R.V.’s physical exam findings?arrow_forwardThe daily dose of diphenhydramine HCl for a child may be determined on the basis of 5 mg/kg of body weight or on the basis of 150 mg/m2.

- The body mass index B of a person of mass m kg and height h meters is given by the formula B(m,h)=m/h^(2).One child increased his previous height of 1.2 meters by 3 centimeters, and his mass increased from 29 kg to 32 kg. Use the differential to estimate how much the child's body mass index has changed.arrow_forwardSharon is a 21-year old 200-meter runner, who now trains twice daily for 2-3 hours each session.Currently, her body fat is 12% and muscle mass is 31%.
