Remove waste from the blood 2.remove excess water from the blood 3. balance blood electrolytes semipermeable membrane - CORRECT ANSWER thin sheet of natural or synthetic material that allows some small particles to pass through, while blocking other, larger ones. what is a dialyzer and the 2 compartments - CORRECT ANSWER artificial kidney and blood site and dialysate site what happens if the blood site and dialysate site mix? - CORRECT ANSWER = blood leak what is dialysate (3 things)? - CORRECT ANSWER RO water, acid bath, and bicarbonate what is an extracorporeal circuit? - CORRECT ANSWER bloodline, sal ine, and dialyzer=set up What is diffusion? - CORRECT ANSWER movement of dissolved particles across a semipermeable membrane from the side with the higher concentration to the side with the lower concentratio n. What is ultrafiltration? - CORRECT ANSWER removes water from the blood by pushing it across the semipermeable membrane What is convection? - CORRECT ANSWER or solute drag is when solutes move with the water across the semipermeable membrane. What is osmosis? - CORRECT ANS WER is the movement of water across a semipermeable membrane from the side with the lower solute concentration to the side with the higher solute concentration After a chemical disinfection with bleach, how do you verify that the machine is free o f residual bleach before you start setting up? - CORRECT ANSWER check the fluid from the drain hose with residual chlorine test strip What is an acceptable test result when verifying the absence of residual bleach? - CORRECT ANSWER less th an or equal to 0.5ppm What is strikethrough? - CORRECT ANSWER Saline rises in transducer allows for inaccurate readings.
