Mashed potatoes do not contain enough liquid to be counted in the fluid intake of the client, whereas IV fluids are part of the liquid intake of the client and should be counted. Soups are high in the percentage of water that they contain, as is gelatin, and both should be counted in the daily fluid intake.
