INTERPRETATION
High TMP readings may indicate
that blood clotting is present in
the dialyzer. Flushing the
dialyzer with saline may reduce
the TMP to a normal range.

Renogen is a treatment of
anemia associated with chronic
renal failure. Reduction of
allogenic blood transfusion in
the surgery patient.
Hemodialysis
Clot at venous chamber cannot
temporary
be removed but can be
terminated due to
minimized by proper priming i.e.
clotted arterial and u have to check if the blood
venous chambers
level is too low that increase
blood contact surface with air.
Temporary
Chills during dialysis can be a

sign of infection, since the

access and send them through
your blood stream, causing the
reaction of chills and shakes.
- The number one cause of fever
in renal dialysis patients is
infection. Dialysis patients
always have a poor immunity,
due to the great loss of protein
from urine and dialysis, as well
as strict diet control, which
makes them fail to get enough
nutrition for a strong immune

system.

procedure that replaces blood

of an injury or illness.

The suture may remove if the
physician foresee that there an
improvement of the laceration, it
may help for good healing of the
wound.
Internal jugular venous access is
the direct route from the right
internal jugular vein to the
superior vena cava facilitates
hemodialysis access and
pulmonary artery catheter
placement. Its removal is
defending on the physicians
order. It is remove if there is no
more need of the IJ catheter for
the patient who undergone
dialysis.

from a place of higher pressure
to one of lower pressure
T- position- the body is laid flat
on the back (supine position)
with the feet higher than the
head by 15-30 degrees. Use to
avoid hypotention.
Hoarseness, an abnormal
change in your voice, is a
common symptom often
experienced with a dry,
scratchy throat.
Domperidone is a medicine that
increases the movements or
contractions of the stomach
and bowel.
Esomeprazole is a proton pump
inhibitor which reduces
stomach acid secretion.
dyspeptic like symptoms is
characterized by the symptoms
like dyspepsia such as upper
abdominal pain, belching,
nausea, vomiting, abdominal
bloating, early satiety, and
abdominal distention
The fistula reduces the blood
supply, or rather makes the
flow over the fistula abnormal,
the reduction of blood supply is
known as Steal Syndrome and
may result from pain at arms
Ultrafiltration may also be
reduced due to very low
peritoneal solute transport
rates
Muscle cramping is common on
hemodialysis. The cause of
muscle cramping is unknown.
However, three conditions that
seem to increase cramping are:
1) hypotension; 2) the patient
being below dry weight; and 3)
use of low sodium dialysis

solution.
