◉ numbness and tingling.
Answer: All of the following may be signs and symptoms of an
infected access except:
◉ The absence of disease producing organisms.
Answer: Asepsis is defined as
◉ 1,385 mL/hr.
Answer: Based on Mrs Smith's total amount of fluid to be removed,
what is the ultrafiltration rate per hour (mL/hr) for her 4 hour
treatment?
◉ Discard the needle.
Answer: Before a hemodialysis treatment, the technician removes
the cap from the fistula needle and accidentally touches the chair
with the tip of the needle. Which of these actions should the
technician take first?
◉ Hemolysis.
,Answer: Dialysate that is too hot will cause
◉ Weight at which the patient has no edema or fluid in the lungs and
BP is normal.
Answer: Dry weight is defined as the

Answer: Excess fluid is forced out of the blood and into the dialysate
during dialysis by which principle
◉ Percent rejection.
Answer: Feed conductivity- product conductivity divided by x 100 is
the formula calculation of

Answer: Fluid to be removed divided by the treatment time tells us
◉ Inadequate dialyzer priming.
Answer: Germicide rebound occurs due to:
◉ Anaphylaxis (severe allergic reaction).
Answer: Hives, itching, tightness of the chest and respiratory
distress may be signs and symptoms of:
