    Should the math be more specific since the table says 1.5 L and not 1L?

      Hello! Thanks for your question. I believe you are referring to the table indicating the electrolyte concentration in various secretions (e.g. stomach secretions) that Jean references. While the 'Volume (L/d)' column indicates the total estimated amount of the secretion produced daily in the body (the 1.5L for stomach secretions), the 'Electrolyte Concentration' column is in mEq/L, so for the one liter of output daily from the NGT being suctioned, this is the concentration of electrolytes you would estimate. So in this case, the person's 1 L of output should use the values directly from the table with no calculations. Hopefully that answered your question appropriately, but let us know if you need further clarification!
