A client weighing 160 pounds (72.6 kg), who has been diagnosed with hypovolemia, is weighed every day. The health care provider asked to be notified if the client loses 1,000 mL of fluid in 24 hours. What weight would be consistent with this amount of fluid loss?

Answer:

The weight would be 71.6kg

Explanation:

Assuming the fluid mostly water and its density 1 kg/L, the new weight is the last recorded weight minus the mass of 1000ml (1l) of the fluid.

[tex]density=\frac{m}{v}\\m=1L*1kg/L=1kg[/tex]

so the new weight is:

[tex]w=72.6kg-1kg\\w=71.6kg[/tex]
