To maintain an optimum gradient between blood and dialysate across the dialyzer membrane
which type of blood to dialysate flow is used ?

(ಹಿ) Co-current flow (8) Cross-current flow

(<) Counter-current flow (D) Parallel flow

The potential for an air embolism to occur during hemodialysis is great. However, the
technology today makes it a rare occurrence. What possible reason could there be for this to
really happen to your patient ?

(ಹಿ) Disconnected venous needle

(B) Disconnected arterial line

(9) Malfunctioning air detector

(D) Saline bag for infusion depleted

The dialysis machine assures the dialysate entering the dialyzer is safe for the patient’s

treatment. What does it do to assure this ?

(ಹ) Regulates the temperature, conductivity, pH, measures pressure and flow, detects a
blood leak

(B) Alerts the user if something is wrong

(ಲ) Bypasses the dialyzer if dialysate is not safe
