Description
A fluid ledger tracks counted intake against a budget already established by a clinician.
A fluid ledger tracks counted intake against a budget already established by a clinician.1
Its signed remainder describes that budget's arithmetic and does not choose a daily hydration requirement.
When to use Daily Water Intake Calculator
Use this tool to apply the stated daily water intake calculator operation with an explicit input and unit basis.
How to use Daily Water Intake Calculator and how it works
- Establish the measurement basis and units described above.
- Enter callerClinicianIndependentlySpecifiedFluidBudgetMl, actualAlreadyCountedFluidIntakeMl and run the tool.
- Read result.value using the output meanings below.
- If input is rejected, correct the stated type, range, ordering or alignment issue and rerun; review successful results under the declared convention.
| Input field | Meaning | Value type | Requirement |
|---|---|---|---|
| callerClinicianIndependentlySpecifiedFluidBudgetMl | Clinician independently specified fluid budget ml, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; nonnegative; further conditions in the algorithm |
| actualAlreadyCountedFluidIntakeMl | Already counted fluid intake ml, on the basis specified in the algorithm. | number | required; finite; nonnegative; further conditions in the algorithm |
Require nonnegative clinician budget and counted intake in milliliters. Subtract intake from budget; negative values record intake above the supplied budget.
remaining mL = clinician budget mL − counted intake mL Apply the declared units, ordering and branch conditions.
| Output field | Meaning | Value type |
|---|---|---|
| result | Object containing the declared output fields. | object |
| result.value | Signed remaining clinician-supplied fluid budget in milliliters. | number |

}Limitations and assumptions
The output applies the declared operation to the values you supply. Establish the measurement basis, units, coefficients and any caller-selected rules before interpreting it. The tool does not independently collect or verify observations or decide whether a model or reference applies. This output does not choose a dose, diet, fluid target or exercise prescription.
Supply explicit required fields with the documented types and dense aligned arrays. Unknown fields, wrong types and nonfinite numbers are rejected. Branch-specific constraints are explained above. A successful false boolean, negative signed difference, empty slice or unresolved tie is distinct from an input error. Very large inputs or outputs may be rejected by shared resource limits.
NIDDK describes individualized fluid limits in dialysis care. The tool only subtracts counted intake from an already established clinician budget and cannot determine an appropriate hydration target.2
