While dоing rоunds оn your post-operаtive pаtients, you cаrefully assess ‘I/O’ (intake/output) status for each of the patients. You notice that a 32-year-old male patient has the following 24-hour I/O data on POD #2 following appendectomy: Total Intake: 2500 cc Total Output: 2440 cc O2 saturation is stable at 96% (room air), vital signs are stable, and patient is afebrile. Lungs: Clear in all lung fields Skin: Turgor < 2 seconds Heart: regular rate and rhythm without murmurs, rubs, or gallops Abdomen: Bowel sounds are present; wound without erythema or discharge; minimal pain at incision site Extremities: No edema noted on examination of upper and lower extremities bilaterally Patient is currently receiving IV fluid at a rate of 100 cc/hour. His diet was advanced to ‘full liquids’ yesterday, and he is tolerating this well. The patient does not currently have a Foley catheter in place. How would you interpret this I/O data, and what is the most appropriate next step in managing the patient’s fluid status?
