Question 1 of 5
A nurse is calculating a client's fluid intake over the past 8 hr. The client had one 8-oz cup of coffee 3 oz of juice, and 12 oz of soda. The client's water pitcher had 800 mL and 200 mL remain. The client also had IV fluids infusing at 40 mL/hr via an IV pump. How many mL should the nurse document as the client's total intake for the shift?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: 1,610 mL.
To calculate the total intake, we need to add up all the sources of fluid intake: 8 oz coffee (240 mL), 3 oz juice (90 mL), 12 oz soda (360 mL), water pitcher (600 mL - 200 mL), and IV fluids (40 mL/hr x 8 hr = 320 mL).
Total intake = 240 + 90 + 360 + (600 - 200) + 320 = 1,610 mL.
Choice B is incorrect because it does not account for all the sources of fluid intake.
Choice C and D are incorrect because they overestimate the total intake.
