    There is nothing like physiological or pathological diuresis. Every diuresis you have to keep watch. Measure output every 1 hr & replace it in next 1 hr. Nephrologist will decide whether to keep equal balance or make him -ve as per the amount of fluid retained. every 6 hrs S K if out put is too much. As you may have to replace potassium . If out put is not too much it can be done every 12 hrs. 

    Rest nothing. If CVP is put moniter CVP but if not put - forget it.
