Which of these findings noted on a safety check would indicate that an intervention is needed.: Hemosafe is in place and secure on the arterial line (hemosafe clamp should be secured on the venous line) 6. The patient presents to the dialysis center with a pulse rate of 44/bpm but doesn't appear to be in distress. What should be the dialysis technicians immediate action?: Notify the RN 7. Documentation and interpretation of the KECN (clearance effective by conductivity) results can assist the staff member in: Assessment for possible clotting in the dialyzer 8. Which of the following would minimize bacterial growth in the water treatment system?: Circulation of water during the day only 9. A major factor affecting ultrafiltration is: Pressure 10. Pre-treatment evaluation of an internal vascular access includes: Palpating for a thrill 11.

The PCT notices the patient yawning toward the end of treatment. The PCT should take which action immediately: Check the patient blood pressure 23. Several patients with normal pre-dialysis temperatures develop sudden chills and a spike in temperature. This situation is most likely caused by: - Presence of endotoxins in the dialysate 24.
