Brief Answer: Follows. Detailed Answer: Dear Madam, Thank you for posting your query on XXXXXXX Well looking into your problem I would like to tell you that for fluid volume excess strict intake output record needs to be maintained . The total amount of output should be more than or atleast equal to input to patient be in negative or equibalance . In auscultation of lungs if you have basal crepts then it is an indication of fluid overload . presence of pitting pedal edema also denotes the same . Whatever parameters you have mentioned BP monitoring will be more important but rest all should also be observed but they are not specific to fluid excess. Take care. Dr. Shruti
