states:
a glomerulus and a tubule system - ANS a nephron is made up
elevated hematocrit - ANS which of the following is not a symptom of uremia
5,540ml - ANS Mrs. smith's dry weight is 62 kg. her pretreatment weight when she
came in for treatment on monday was 67kg. the priming saline amount is 240ml, fluid
from medication is 100 ml , and she is not allowed any fluids during treatment. what is
the total amount of fluid weight to be removed during her treatment?
1,385 ml/hr - ANS based on Mrs. smith's total amount of fluids to be removed, what
is the ultrafiltration rate per hour (ml/hr)for her 4-hour treatment?
removing too much fluids - ANS which of the following is a cause of hypotension
during and after dialysis treatments?
154 - ANS the scale says a patient weights 70 kg. this the same as weighting how
many points (lb)?
7.35-7.45 - ANS normal body ph is
hypertension - ANS one sigh and symptoms of fluids overload is
potassium - ANS abnormal levels of this electrolyte can cause cardiac arrhythmias
and even death
osmosis - ANS water moves across a membrane from an area of lower solute
concentration to an area of higher solute concentration by which principle
diffusion - ANS waste products are removed during dialysis by which principle
,ultrafiltration - ANS excess fluid is forced out of the blood and into the dialysis by
which principle
osmosis - ANS the movement of the fluid from the tissue toward a higher
concentration of sodium in the blood is a example of
diffusion - ANS decreasing the patient's prescribed blood flow affects the rate of
using a bath that will provide a grater concentration gradient - ANS which of the
following actions would increase diffusion during dialysis?
urea - ANS which of the following diffusion diffuses from the patients blood during
dialysis?
transmembrane pressure - ANS ultrafiltration is influenced by
peritonitis - ANS the most common complication in peritoneal dialysis is
hyperglycemia - ANS the dextrose used in the dialysate for peritoneal dialysis can
cause
immunosuppressive medication - ANS if a patient develops an infection post
transplant, the largest contributing factor would most likely be:
infection - ANS the most frequent cause of death in the first year post transplant is
performance of the dialyzer - ANS total cell volume (TCV) is a indirect measure of
the
80% - ANS the TCV should be no less than
11 hours - ANS the manimum dwell time to achieve sterilization with the chemical
renalin is
residual sterilant - ANS the reprocessed dialyzer is carefully rinsed prior to patient
use to remove
inadequate dialyzer priming - ANS germicide rebound occurs due to
, AAMI - ANS which organization set the standards and recommendations for dialyzer
reprocessing?
10 mmhg - ANS the blood path integrity is tested to eliminate the possibility of a
blood leak. the drop in pressure should not exceed:
increase the rate of waste removal - ANS the purpose of using counter-current flow
is to
transmembrane pressure - ANS the total pressure that exists across the dialyzer
membrane is called
between 7.0 and 7.4 - ANS dialyser ph should be
hemolysis - ANS dialyzer that is too hot will cause
bicarbonate - ANS which of the following component in dialysate is used to correct
metabolic acidosis?
before each patient shift or every four hour - ANS total chlorine levels in the water
are tested
calcium and magnesium - ANS the water softener removes
200 CFU/ML - ANS AAMI standars for the total microbial count of dialysate shall not
exceed
operates on the principle of ion exchange - ANS the water softener
dialysis quality water - ANS which of the following is considered to be safe water for
dialysis
hemolysis - ANS patient expose to chloramines during the hemodialysis treatment
may cause
less than two (2) EU/ML. - ANS according to AAMI the standard levels for endotoxin
levels is
percent rejection - ANS feed conductivity- product conductivity divided by x 100 is
the formula calculation of
