DIALYSIS

Question 1

a type of
kidney replacement
therapy that
removes metabolic
waste products,
and toxins, as well
as excess fluid and
electrolytes from
the blood

Answer 1

DIALYSIS

Question 2

required due to end-stage renal disease, which means the kidneys have lost almost all their
function.

can also be used to correct fluid, acid-base, and electrolyte imbalances, and to treat drug overdoses

Answer 2

DIALYSIS

Question 3

Two types of dialysis

Answer 3

HEMODIALYSIS and PERITONEAL DIALYSIS.

Question 4

To perform dialysis,
vascular access for
- will be needed.

Answer 4

hemodialysis

Question 5

To perform dialysis,
abdominal access for

Answer 5

peritoneal
dialysis

Question 6

temporary venous
access can be obtained
through a catheter in the
- for hemodialysis in an
acute setting.

Answer 6

internal jugular or femoral
vein

Question 7

Temporary Catheter HEMODIALYSIS

Answer 7

ACUTE

Question 7

When permanent access is
needed for long-term
hemodialysis, an
- is created surgically in the patient’s arm.

Answer 7

arteriovenous or AV fistula or graft

Question 7

an
arteriovenous or AV fistula or graft creates a
connection between a small artery and a vein, which causes the vein to become “-,”
meaning it increases in size, develops thicker walls and blood flow is increased.

Answer 7

“arterialized

Question 7

vascular access dialysis

Answer 7

HEMODIALYSIS

Question 7

ACUTE HEMODIALYSIS

Answer 7

Temporary Catheter in:
Internal Jugular Vein
Femoral Vein

Question 8

AV fistula: created surgically, vein is arterialized

Answer 8

LONG TERM HEMODIALYSIS

Question 8

peritoneal access dialysis

Answer 8

PERITONEAL DIALYSIS

Question 8

Permanent Access HEMODIALYSIS

Answer 8

LONG TERM HEMODIALYSIS

Question 9

movement of solutes

Answer 9

DIFFUSION

Question 9

the health education platform that makes learning easy and fun, but in this case, it refers to the movement of fluid through a semipermeable membrane from an area of lesser solute concentration to an area of greater solute concentration.

Answer 9

Osmosis

Question 10

can be obtained by inserting a catheter into the peritoneal cavity.

Answer 10

PERITONEAL DIALYSIS

Question 10

the movement of solutes from a greater concentration to a lesser concentration until the two solutions have the same concentration of solutes on either side of a semipermeable membrane.

Answer 10

Diffusion

Question 10

when a driving pressure moves fluid and solutes across a semipermeable membrane.

Answer 10

ultrafiltration

Question 11

PRINCIPLES OF DIALYSIS

Answer 11

DIFFUSION, OSMOSIS, ULTRAFILTRATION

Question 12

movement of fluid

Answer 12

OSMOSIS

Question 13

driving pressure moves fluid & solutes across membranes.

Answer 13

ULTRAFILTRATION

Question 14

One of the most important components is the -, which acts like an artificial kidney.

Answer 14

dialyzer

Question 15

the dialyzer has two compartments separated by a semipermeable membrane:

Answer 15

blood compartment and
dialysate.

Question 16

dialysate

Answer 16

a compartment containing the dialysis solution,

Question 17

typically composed of water, electrolytes, glucose, and a buffer, like bicarbonate.

Answer 17

Dialysate

Question 18

The - allows the movement of small and medium-sized molecules like electrolytes, urea, and creatinine from the patient’s blood into the dialysate while preventing the movement of larger plasma components like proteins and blood cells.

Answer 18

semipermeable membrane

Question 19

Other parts of the dialysis machine include a pump to help draw blood from the patient; a
- since anticoagulation is needed due to the risk of blood clots;

Answer 19

heparin infusion pump

Question 20

Other parts of the dialysis machine include include - so they can be prevented from getting into the
circulation.

Answer 20

air trap or a sensor to detect air bubbles

Question 21

When the patient is connected to the dialysis machine, their blood is pumped through the
tubing where - is added.

Answer 21

heparin

Question 22

Once the blood reaches the dialyzer, metabolic wastes and
toxins, as well as excess fluid and electrolytes are drawn into the -.

Answer 22

dialysate

Question 23

uses the patient’s own peritoneal membrane as the
semipermeable membrane.

Answer 23

peritoneal dialysis

Question 24

what is introduced in the abdominal cavity through the abdominal catheter, and dwells in the peritoneal space for a certain amount of time

Answer 24

Dialysate

Question 25

Dialysate is introduced in the abdominal cavity through the abdominal catheter, and dwells in the peritoneal space for a certain amount of time, usually

Answer 25

4 to 6 hours.

Question 26

Always start by checking their pretreatment laboratory test results and assessing their weight and vital signs. Auscultate their heart and lung sounds and look for the presence of edema.

Answer 26

edema
