tpn dextrose calculate calories
grams of solute/100 ml of fluid j D70 has 70 grams of dextrose per 100 ml. j 10% amino acid solution has 10 grams amino acids/100 ml of solution j 20% lipids has 20 grams of lipid/100 ml of solution. Protein Content Calculations. j To calculate the grams. of protein supplied by a TPN solution, multiply the total volume of amino acid solution (in ml*) supplied in a day by the amino acid concentration. Example Protein Calculation j 1000 ml of 8% amino acids: j 1000 ml x 8 g/100 ml = 80g j Or 1000 x .08 = 80 g. Calculation of Dextrose Calories j Calculate grams of dextrose: Â± Multiply the total volume of dextrose soln (in ml) supplied in a day by the dextrose concentration.
