put in their own needles, weigh themselves and record it, check their dialyzer
Hemodialysis patients should be taught to:
settings and dialysate
All of the following statements about megadose fat-or- watersoluble vitamins should not be given.
vitamins in dialysis patients are true
EXCEPT:
diffusion of solvent through a semipermeable membrane from low-to high-solute
Osmosis is best defined as
concentration
In hemodialysis, blood and dialysate have they flow in opposite directions
which of the following properties?
In the dialyzer, water may be removed the intravascular compartment
from:
Which site in the hemodialysis pathway has blood entering the dialyzer fibers
the highest positive pressure?
The term "sieving coefficient of a fraction of solute that passes through the membrane by convection
membrane" refers to the:
What moves from one body compartment osmotic forces
to another by:
Biocompatibility is best illustrated by: reprocessed dialyzers that have a better biocompatibility than new ones
The amount of fluid to be taken from the may be calculated by subtracting the patient's estimated dry weight from
patient during hemodialysis: the predialysis weight and adding any fluid the patient receives during
treatment.
The ultrafiltration coefficient of a dialyzer fluid that passes through the membrane in 1 hour
refers to the :
The molecular weight cutoff of a dialyzer is albumin
12,000 daltons. Which of the following
molecules would not pass through the
membrane in to the dialysate?
Clearance of low-molecular-weight diffusion
molecules by dialysis is accomplished
mostly by:
A hollow fiber dialyzer has which of the very fine fiber tubes held in place by polyurethane material
following properties?
Synthetic membranes have which of the The have thick fiber walls
following properties?
If a dialyzer has a urea clearance rate (K) 200 ml
of 200 ml/min and a blood flow rate
(Qb) of
200 ml/min, what volume of the blood will
be cleared of urea in 1 minute?
To determine the most accurate clearance measure the solute concentrations of blood going into and out of the dialyzer
rate of a particular solute, one should:
All of the following substances are phosphate
added to the dialysate EXCEPT:
Sodium modeling refers to: changing the concentration of the dialysate sodium during the course of dialysis
Conductivity is best defined as: a method of checking electrolyte levels in the dialysate
