Question 7:

A nurse is completing an 8-hr 180 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? A calculator is activated within your exam. Enter numeric value only. Do not label.

Answer and Explanation
Correct Answer: "782" mL

Explanation

To calculate the total intake in milliliters (mL) for the client, we convert each item's volume to mL and then sum them up:

1. 4 oz juice: 1 fluid ounce (oz) is approximately equal to 29.57 mL. So, 4 oz of juice is 4 by 29.57 = 118.28 mL.

2. 6 oz tea: Similarly, 6 oz of tea is 6 by 29.57 = 177.42 mL.

3. 100 mL cup full of ice chips: No conversion needed; this is already in mL.

4. IV bolus of 150 mL: This is already in mL.

5. 8 oz broth: 8 by 29.57 = 236.56 mL.

Now, add up all the volumes:

118.28 mL juice + 177.42 mL tea + 100 mL ice chips + 150 mL IV bolus + 236.56 mL broth

= 782.26 mL

So, the nurse should record 782 mL of intake on the client's record.
