    Calculation

    TIME INTAKE 0800 4 ounce apple juice 1200 8 ounces milk 4 ounces broth 1500 4 ounces tea A client remains on strict intake and output (I&O) on the first postoperative day and documents the last 8 hours of intake on the I&O bedside record above. How many mL will the nurse document in the client's electronic medical record (EMR)? (Enter numeric value only.)

    mL

    Explanation & Rationale

    Convert all fluid intake from ounces (oz) to milliliters (mL) using the standard conversion factor of 1 oz = 30 mL. 0800: 4 oz apple juice × 30 mL/oz = 120 mL 1200: 8 oz milk × 30 mL/oz = 240 mL 1200: 4 oz broth × 30 mL/oz = 120 mL 1500: 4 oz tea × 30 mL/oz = 120 mL Sum all the converted volumes to get the total intake in mL. Total Intake (mL) = 120 mL (juice) + 240 mL (milk) + 120 mL (broth) + 120 mL (tea) = 600 mL.
