Question 1 of 5

The nurse plans to provide the next shift with the IV fluid balance for a client who had a 440 mL secondary infusion that was started 2 hours ago at a rate of 85 mL/hour via an infusion pump. What is the remaining volume to be infused? (Enter numeric value only.)

Correct Answer: 270

Rationale:
To find the answer, we can use the following formula: (remaining volume) = (initial volume) - (infused volume). Substituting the given values, we get: (remaining volume) = (440) - ((85 x 2)). Simplifying, we get: (remaining volume) = (440) - (170). (remaining volume) = 270.
Therefore, the remaining volume to be infused is 270 mL.
