Q

A 70kg patient was NPO for 8 hours. What is this patients calculated fluid deficit?

A

40ml + 20mL + 50mL = 110mL/hr

110 x 8hrs = 880 mL deficit

Q

How much of a fluid deficit occurs due to bowel prep?

A

2-3L

19
Q

What type of insensible losses might be seen in a patient?

A

4-8 mL/kg/hr

This doesn’t pass the sniff test. For a 50kg patient this would be 2400 mL per day on the low end.

A

No.
