The primary electrolyte in both our blood and the dialysate is... - correct answer sodium
Policy states the conductivity meter should be calibrated when an inaccurate reading is suspected. It should also be calibrated: - correct answer prior to daily use
When the dialysate sodium level is higher than the level in the blood: - correct answer Diffusion will cause sodium to move into the blood
The calibration of the conductivity meter should be completed at least... - correct answer daily
