The nurse calculates Mary's intake and output (I&O) for the shift. Mary has had 24 ounces of water, 8 ounces of apple juice, and three 4-ounce cartons of milk. She received 50 mL of IV fluids per hour for the last 12 hours and had a urinary output of 1200 mL, plus one episode of wetting the bed.
What is Mary's total intake for this shift?
I tried this problem and got 1901.2ml but it was wrong. I also tried 1902ml, 1901ml. Can anyone help explain to me what I did wrong and help me solve it? I have no idea what I could be doing wrong. The answer must be in milliliters.
