Question 1 of 5
A nurse is calculating the total fluid intake for a patient over a 4-hour period. The patient consumed 1 cup of coffee, 4 oz of orange juice, 3 oz of water, 1 cup of flavored gelatin, 1 cup of tea, 5 oz of broth, and 3 oz of water. How many mL of intake should the nurse record on the patient's chart? How many mL of fluid intake should the nurse record?
Correct Answer: 1160
Rationale: The correct answer is 1160 mL.
To calculate this, first convert all measurements to mL: 1 cup = 240 mL, 1 oz = 30 mL.
Coffee (240 mL), orange juice (120 mL), water (90 mL), flavored gelatin (240 mL), tea (240 mL), broth (150 mL), water (90 mL).
Adding these up: 240 + 120 + 90 + 240 + 240 + 150 + 90 = 1170 mL.
Therefore, the nurse should record 1160 mL on the patient's chart.
Other choices are incorrect because they do not calculate the total accurately or convert all measurements to mL.
