How much is the water intake and urine output for a child of 16 years who is suffering from a cardiomyopathy?

What we usually do with my patient who are on fluid restriction. We collect a 24 hour urine collection to check the volume or how much the patient pees/urinate. When we have the total volume of the urine for 24 hours we add 500 milliliters to this. 500 milliliters is the amount of excess fluid from expiration and sweat that we produce. so the total of this is the fluid that the patient can take per day.

Equation:

24 hour urine volume + 500 mls = total fluid intake per day

I think you're asking 2 different questions here.

You need to consult the child's cardiologist for specific instructions regarding fluid restrictions.

You should ask his or her doctor.

But as a rule a gallon of liquid must be consumed most of it in water form.

What goes in must come out approximately.

For schools, the Internet is the best place to do the research.
