At 1600, a postoperative client was admitted to the medical/surgical floor. They have an IV of Lactated Ringer’s infusing at 125 mL/hr. At dinner, the client had 1 cup of chicken broth, 1 cup of gelatin, and 4 ounces of water. At 2000, the client sipped 6 ounces of ginger ale. At 2200, the client voided 520 mL of pale yellow urine. At 2230, the Hemovac drain recorded 75 mL of serosanguinous fluid. Calculate the client’s total intake and output from 1600 to 2300 when your shift ends.  Intake Output

During your semester modules, you learned about the importance of the Gut-Brain Axis, particularly a subfield of health known as psychoneuroimmunology that emphasizes the critical interaction of the psychological, neuroendocrine, and immunological processes in stress and illness.   There is bi-directional communication between the gut and the brain. The gut communicates with the brain through four different channels:  1) the immune system, 2) the Central Nervous System;, 3) the Endocrine System, and the 4) Autonomic Nervous System.   Describe how these 4 channels are involved in the gut-brain axis.   1.  Immune System: (4 points) 2.  Central Nervous System: (4 points) 3.  Endocrine System: (4 points) 4.  Autonomic Nervous System:  (4 points)
