Calculation
How many mL of urine output should the nurse document for an infant's wet diaper weight of 85 grams compared to the dry diaper weight of 50 grams? (Enter numeric value only.)
mL
Explanation & Rationale
Calculation: Calculate the difference in weight between the wet and dry diaper. Weight difference (grams) = Wet diaper weight (grams) - Dry diaper weight (grams) = 85 grams - 50 grams = 35 grams. Convert the weight difference in grams to milliliters (mL). Conversion factor: 1 gram = 1 mL Urine output (mL) = Weight difference (grams) x 1 mL/gram = 35 grams x 1 mL/gram = 35 mL.
