A patient consumed the following fluids: 1000 mL of IV, 4 oz of juice, 8 oz of milk, 1/2 cup of chicken broth, 5 tbsp of jello (counts as liquid). How many milliliters of fluids did the patient intake total?
Added by Daniel Y.
Step 1
- 4 ounces of juice = 4 * 28.413 = 113.652 milliliters - 8 ounces of milk = 8 * 28.413 = 227.226 milliliters Show more…

A patient you are caring for has a fluid restriction order and you are required to record the patient’s daily fluid intake. Over the next 24 hours, you note the patient had two 8 oz. cartons of milk for breakfast, a 16 oz. glass of orange juice and a 12 oz. can of soda for lunch and drank 23 oz. of water for dinner. However, the physician requires you to record the daily fluid intake in cc’s (cubic centimeters). How many cc’s did the patient drink within that 24-hour period? (Hint: 1 mL= 1cc, 1 oz.= 0.03L)

A patient needs an infusion, the rate is 3.45 oz/h. How many liters does the patient receive after 475 min? (1 oz = 29.57 mL) Must be solved using dimensional analysis.
