Recorded outputs for a patient are: 400 ml urine, 250 ml from a drain, and 100 ml of vomit. What is the total fluid output?

Question

TheoryPractice · Accepted Answer

750 ml. All outputs summed: 400 + 250 + 100 = 750 ml total output.

Why the other options are incorrect:
• 700 ml: 700 ml is 50 ml less than the correct total.
• 725 ml: 725 ml falls 25 ml short of the correct figure.
• 775 ml: 775 ml adds an extra 25 ml that is not accounted for.
• 800 ml: 800 ml overstates the correct output by 50 ml.
