Editor's Notes
IBW of 60.7 kg using 83.3 kg/m2 at the 85%ile BMI/age
Be ready to discuss the implications of all abnormal labs
Indicate energy factor used.
Protein needs are calculated using ABW
Mention the emphasis of family-wide change
Will f/u of labs only if repeat is available from PMD since RD cannot order them. Abnormal labs usually repeated every 6 months
