Calculation
The nurse is reviewing instructions with a client who is to take 120 mL of a carbohydrate balanced meal replacement four times a day, three hours postprandial. The client has a measuring cup marked in ounces. How many ounces should the client take for each dose? (If rounding is required, round to the nearest tenth.)
ounces
Explanation & Rationale
Calculation: Prescribed dose in milliliters = 120 mL 1 ounce = 30 mL Convert the prescribed dose from milliliters to ounces: Dose in ounces = Prescribed dose (mL) / Conversion factor (mL/ounce) = 120 mL / 30 mL/ounce = 4 ounces
