Question

A chronic kidney disease patient is on a fluid restriction of 1,000 mL's per day. On the 7A-7P shift, the client drank 16 oz of coffee. How much can the PM shift nurse give the client?

A) 520 ml
B) 600 ml
C) 528 ml
D) 350 ml

Answer 1

The PM shift nurse can give the client 527 mL.

Step-by-step explanation:

The chronic kidney disease patient is on a fluid restriction of 1,000 mL per day. On the 7A-7P shift, the client drank 16 oz of coffee, which is equivalent to approximately 473 mL. To determine how much the PM shift nurse can give the client, we subtract the amount of coffee the client drank from the fluid restriction limit: 1,000 mL - 473 mL = 527 mL. Therefore, the PM shift nurse can give the client 527 mL.
