_______ is the instrument use to measure blood pressure
- answer-Sphygmomanometer
________ is the first symptom that a patient developing dialysis disequilibrium
syndrome is most likely to exhibit.
- answer-Headache
________ is the normal range for a resting pulse rate in an adult:
- answer-60-100 beats/min.
"First use syndrome" is a hypersensitivity reaction to a dialyzer. It characterized
by:
- answer--Back pain
-Anxiety
-Tachycardia
-Wheezing
-Circulatory collapse
A dialyzer with an ultrafiltration coefficient of 12, (Kuf of 12) and a TMP of 120
will remove how many mL of fluid per hour?
- answer-1440 mL of fluid/hr
UF coefficient x TMP = mL of fluid/hr able to be removed
12 x 120 = 1440
A female patient's predialysis weight is 149.6 lb (68 kg) and the prescribed target
weight is 138.6 lb (63 kg). For her four-hour treatment, the priming saline amount
is 240 ml and the rinse back amount is 200 ml. She is not allowed any oral fluids
during her treatment.
The patient's hourly ultrafiltration rate should be how many mL per hour?
- answer-UF rate should be 1360 mL/hour
, 5 kg weight difference from dry weight = 5 ml
+ 440 ml (240 ml and 200 ml saline)
---------------------------------------------------
5440 ml
5440 ml / 4 hours = 1360 ml/hour
A male patient who has diabetes and receives hemodialysis treatments sometimes
drinks juice when his blood sugar is low. Which of the following types of juice
would be the best for this patients, since it is lowest in potassium?
a. Prune juice
b. Grapefruit juice
c. Vegetable juice cocktail (V-8)
d. Cranberry juice cocktail
- answer-d. Cranberry juice cocktail
A nephron is made up of:
- answer-A glomerulus and a tubule
A patient's laboratory results reveal a significant drop inhemoglobin.
Whichmedicationwouldthe technician expect the nurse to administer to the patient
during dialysis treatments?
- answer-Erythropoietin (Epogen)
A rapid pulse of 104 beats/min would indicate that the patient has:
- answer-Tachycardia
A semipermeable membrane is a porous barrier that:
- answer-Allow for only certain sized particles to cross
A shortage of oxygen-carrying red blood cells is called
- answer-anemia
AAMI standards recommend quality control activities before a reprocessed
dialyzer is used on a patient. How many people must check the dialyzer to verify
quality control information?
- answer-Two people, one of whom should be the patient
