◍ What happens in diffusion? Answer: Solutes move through a
membrane from an area of higher concentration to a lower one
◍ Which of these best describe osmosis? Answer: water moving
through a membrane from a lower solute concentration to a higher
one
◍ What role does ultrafiltration play in dialysis? Answer: Removes
water from the patients blood
◍ Gradient is a Answer: difference
◍ Which of these substances might be included in a dialysate
prescription? Answer: bicarbonate, sodium, potassium
◍ what condition occurs due to dialysate that is too hot? Answer:
hemolysis
, ◍ Testing for sterilant levels in a hemodialysis machine prior to
patient use is positive for sterilant. This means the machine: Answer:
needs further rinsing
