    Calculation

    A nurse is calculating the intake of a client during the past 9 hours. The client's intake includes lactated Ringer's intravenous (IV) infusion at 150 mL/hour, cefazolin 2 grams IV intermittent bolus in 100 mL of 0.9 —

    mL.

    Explanation & Rationale

    Step 1 is: Calculate the total intake from the lactated Ringer's IV infusion: 150 mL/hour× 9 hours = 1350 mL. Step 2 is: Add the volume of the cefazolin intermittent bolus: 1350 mL + 100 mL = 1450 mL. Step 3 is: State the total intake: 1450 mL. The client's total intake is 1450 mL.
