    Calculation

    A patient consumes 6 oz of orange juice and 237mL of milk for breakfast. 260 mL of coffee for lunch, and 90 mL of an ice chips and 12oz of chicken broth for dinner. He has NS @ 90mL/hr infusing. The patient voided three times during the shift for 240 mL. 500 mL and 400 mL. Calculate the intake for the 6 AM to 6 PM shift.

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    1. Orange juice and milk for breakfast: 6 oz of orange juice = 6 oz × 30 mL/oz = 180 mL 237 mL of milk = 237 mL Total for breakfast: 180 mL (orange juice)+237 mL (milk)=417 mL 2. Coffee for lunch: 260 mL of coffee = 260 mL Total for lunch:260 mL 3. Ice chips and chicken broth for dinner: 90 mL of ice chips = 90 mL 12 oz of chicken broth = 12 oz × 30 mL/oz = 360 mL Total for dinner: 90 mL (ice chips)+360 mL (chicken broth)=450 mL 4. Normal Saline (NS) infusion: The infusion rate is 90 mL/hr for 12 hours (6 AM to 6 PM). 90 mL/hr×12 hours=1080 mL 5. Total Intake (from all sources): 417 mL (breakfast)+260 mL (lunch)+450 mL (dinner)+1080 mL (NS infusion)=2207 mL Total intake for the 6 AM to 6 PM shift: 2207 mL
