Questions
1. Describe our current standing understanding the
pathophysiology of Parkinsons disease.
a. Parkinsons is a progressive, disabling, neurogenerative disease.
There is a gradual loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia
nigra portion of the midbrain. There is also a loss of the rate-
limiting enzyme for dopamine. There is no exact cause for the
loss of these cells. It is possible that it could be due to genetics
and/or environmental factors.
2.
a. How does this pathophysiology translate into the cardinal
signs and symptoms of Parkinsons?
i. The signs and symptoms of Parkinsons include decreased
transmission of dopamine to the basal ganglia, muscular
stiffness, decreased movement/muscle function, postural
instability and resting tremors.
90#/2.2kg = 40.9 kg
60*2.54cm = 152.4 cm / 100m = 1.524m*1.524m = 2.32m2
40.9*30 = 1,227
40.9*35 = 1,432
Recommended kcals = 1230-1430 kcal/day
40.9*1.0 = 40.9
40.9*1.2 = 49.08
Recommended protein = 40-50 grams/day
