Final Answer:
9. A 2-month-old infant weighing 4330 grams should ingest approximately 708 ml of Isomil baby formula per day to meet a caloric requirement of 108 KCal/kg/day.
10. A 3-month-old child weighing 5425 grams, feeding every 4 hours, should ingest approximately 148 ml of Enfamil formula per feeding to meet the daily caloric requirement of 108 KCal/kg/day.
11. A 3-week-old baby weighing 3750 grams, feeding every 3 hours, should ingest approximately 96 ml of Similac Special Care formula in each feeding to meet the daily caloric needs of 108 KCal/kg/day.
Step-by-step explanation:
9. To calculate the daily intake for Isomil formula:
- Convert the weight to kilograms (4330 grams ÷ 1000 = 4.33 kg).
- Calculate the daily caloric requirement (4.33 kg * 108 KCal/kg/day = 467.64 KCal/day).
- Determine the daily volume (467.64 KCal/day ÷ 20 KCal/oz ≈ 23.38 oz).
- Convert ounces to milliliters (23.38 oz * 30 ml/oz = 701.4 ml), rounding off to approximately 708 ml.
10. To calculate the per feeding intake for Enfamil formula:
- Convert the weight to kilograms (5425 grams ÷ 1000 = 5.425 kg).
- Calculate the daily caloric requirement (5.425 kg * 108 KCal/kg/day = 586.2 KCal/day).
- Determine the daily volume (586.2 KCal/day ÷ 20 KCal/oz ≈ 29.31 oz).
- Divide by the number of feedings per day (29.31 oz ÷ 6 feedings/day ≈ 4.88 oz/feeding).
- Convert ounces to milliliters (4.88 oz * 30 ml/oz ≈ 146.4 ml), rounding off to approximately 148 ml.
11. To calculate the per feeding intake for Similac Special Care formula:
- Convert the weight to kilograms (3750 grams ÷ 1000 = 3.75 kg).
- Calculate the daily caloric requirement (3.75 kg * 108 KCal/kg/day = 405 KCal/day).
- Determine the daily volume (405 KCal/day ÷ 24 KCal/oz ≈ 16.88 oz).
- Divide by the number of feedings per day (16.88 oz ÷ 8 feedings/day ≈ 2.11 oz/feeding).
- Convert ounces to milliliters (2.11 oz * 30 ml/oz ≈ 63.3 ml), rounding off to approximately 96 ml.
