The nurse is mоnitоring fоr fluid overloаd in а pаtient with renal disease. The nurse must calculate the total 24-hour intake of intravenous fluids. The patient has the two following intravenous orders: 1) continuous 0.9% NaCl at [f] mL/hr, and 2) Ancef (cefazolin) 2 g IV q[x]h. The Ancef (cefazolin) is supplied as 2 g in 100 mL of 0.9% NaCl per dose. Based on the orders indicated, what is the total volume of intravenous fluids that this patient is expected to receive within a 24-hour timeframe? Round to the nearest whole number. Enter numeric value only.
