A nurse is completing an 8-hr intake and output (I&O) record for a client who consumed 4 oz juice, 6 oz tea, a 100 mL cup full of ice chips, an IV bolus of 150 mL, and 8 oz broth. The nurse should record how many mL of intake on the client's record?

Step 1 is to convert all intake measurements into milliliters (mL) using the conversion factor of 1 fluid ounce (oz) equals 30 mL, and remembering that ice chips are recorded as half their volume. 4 oz juice × 30 mL/oz = 120 mL. 6 oz tea × 30 mL/oz = 180 mL. 100 mL ice chips ÷ 2 = 50 mL. IV bolus = 150 mL. 8 oz broth × 30 mL/oz = 240 mL. Step 2 is to sum all the converted intake volumes to determine the total intake in mL. 120 mL + 180 mL + 50 mL + 150 mL + 240 mL = 740 mL. The nurse should record 740 mL of intake on the client's record.
