The attached ADIME template needs to be filled out with appropriate information and medical abbreviations. All the correct information is given but experience is needed to fill out the note for the case study information. The budget is not higher because I have all the correct information. I just need a tutor with medical and dietetics experience to fill out the chart note with the correct information.

INTERVENTION
I
PES: Problem related to the Etiology as evidenced by
S&S (measurable Signs and Sx)
Make sure it is a true cause and something that you can
do something about. Preferably the intake domain per
the Academy
YOUR “S” should be able to be “copied” to your M/E- this
will be a way that you can tell if you made a difference
with your intervention.

KEY POINT: YOUR INTERVENTIONS ADDRESS YOUR “E” OF
YOUR PES STATEMENTS ABOVE
Do not put an intervention for a problem you have not
identified- go back and make a PES if you need to.
If you listed a problem- you must have an intervention for
it—either FND, NE, CC

some way or you plan to adjust the diet in some way that
does not need MD approval.
Meal distribution- what FS dept. will provide while in
hospital
• Provide __________diet (as ordered)
• Recommend Diet order change to _______ (if needed)
• Will provide ↑or ↓protein/kcal/snacks/fiber/fluid/
• Recommend Commercial Beverage (ex. Ensure BID/TID)
if needed
NE
1. Educated pt and son and encouraged high Kcal and pro
meals and snacks
2. Educate pt and son on high tyramine foods to avoid while on
Nardil
USE WHEN:
You have a brief education time - pt is in acute
care/hospital- Pick NE or NC, but not both.
If you think pt should talk to their doc about med changesput it in your med note here
Do not put pt and family if not appropriate for THIS pt.
• Educated pt/family on _________diet
• Educated pt /family on importance of_________
• Encouraged ___________
• Leave details of diet out of medical note ie what
constitutes a high fiber diet.

You have ongoing counseling with pt. Usually at least 30
min and outside of hospital setting. Use for outpt
counseling

PES Statements
Inadequate mineral intake of iron related to food and nutrition knowledge deficit re:
vegan diet as evidenced by Hgb =10 g/dL, pallor of face, fatigue, no intake of heme iron
and low intake of non-heme iron per food recall.
Increased iron needs related to increased blood loss secondary to heavy periods and
decreased iron absorption due to high intake of polyphenols
from tea and consuming vegan diet as evidenced by biochemical (Hgb =10 g/dL,
Hct=32%, MCV=71.4 μm3, MCH=23.8 pg, MCHC=33.3%) and clinical evidence of iron
deficiency (pallor and fatigue).
Diagnosis:
1. Inadequate mineral intake of iron related to food and nutrition knowledge deficit
re: vegan diet as evidenced by Hgb =10 g/dL, pallor of face, fatigue, no intake of
heme iron and low intake of
non-heme iron per food recall.
2. Increased iron needs related to increased blood loss secondary to heavy periods
and decreased iron absorption due to high intake of polyphenols
from tea and consuming vegan diet as evidenced by biochemical (Hgb =10 g/dL,
Hct=32%, MCV=71.4 μm3, MCH=23.8 pg, MCHC=33.3%) and clinical evidence
of iron deficiency (pallor and fatigue).
Intervention:
● Nutrition Education re: iron rich food options appropriate in vegan diet, increased
iron needs of 1.8 times non-vegan diet for those following vegan diet, role of
foods/beverages that impact absorption (vitamin C, tannins, and phytates), iron
supplement information and timing of iron intake through foods/supplements, and
management of possible constipation (increased fluid/fiber/activity) resulting from
iron supplementation. Discussed other potential nutrients of concern with vegan
diet (Vitamin B12, Calcium, Vitamin D, Zinc, Omega 3 fatty acids) and food
sources.
● Coordination and Referral of Nutrition Care with physician to provide therapeutic
Fe Rx and follow-up appointment to monitor status of laboratory values
● Coordination and Referral of Care: Pt to follow-up with either PCP or
gynecologist to address heavy menstrual periods.
Goals:
● Pt will consume at least four servings of iron rich foods daily combined at the
same time with one serving of vitamin C rich food/beverage (both from provided
list) as logged in food diary for next month.
● Pt will decrease coffee and tea intake to a total of < two 8 oz cups of coffee daily
within two weeks per food diary.
● Pt will take 45 mg of over the counter ferrous sulfate or ferrous gluconate with ½
cup orange juice and on an empty stomach daily until a prescription for higher
dose iron is obtained.
Monitoring and Evaluation
1. Pt to maintain a food diary and bring to f/u appointment in one month. RD will
review/monitor food intake including Vitamin C and iron containing foods and total
caffeine intake (tea/coffee) at that time.
2. Review overall iron intake from dietary supplement/iron Rx and foods (per food diary).
3. Monitor Nutrition Anemia Profile (Hbg, Hct, MCV, TIBC, Serum Ferritin, Serum Iron,
TSAT). Recommend labs run ~ 5-7 days before appointment.
Objectives:
• Use current information technologies to locate and apply evidence-based guidelines and protocols, such as
the Evidence Analysis Library.
• Describe the governance of nutrition and dietetics practice, such as the Scope of Practice for the Registered
Dietitian Nutritionist and the Code of Ethics for the Profession of Nutrition and Dietetics. (KRDN 2.2)
• Utilize the Nutrition Care Process.
• Demonstrate documentation that follows professional guidelines.

You are an outpatient RD consulting at the student health care center. You received a consult to assess the patient
due to her reports of fatigue and to provide nutrition education regarding a general, healthy diet. She says that she
feels tired and finds it necessary to take a nap almost every evening after she leaves work before she begins
studying. She drinks 2-4 cups of black tea daily to try to stay awake and alert. She states that she has struggled
academically this semester and thinks that her fatigue is to blame.
You obtain a 24 hour recall from the patient. She reports that he usually eats alone. She does not take any dietary
supplements. This menu is fairly representative of her usual intake. Besides the beverages listed in her recall, Ms.
Espinoza drinks water throughout the day.
