As a nephrology nurse‚ I take care of patients with acute and chronic kidney disease. I constantly educating these patients about ways to promote their health and prevent any complication. For my dialysis patients‚ the primary education focus is teaching them the best methods to take care of their dialysis access “Fistula‚ Graft‚ or Central Hemodialysis Catheter”‚ fluid allowance‚ dietary restriction‚ medication adherence; and blood pressure‚ and glucose control.

In relation to this‚ an alternative option has become available for Dialysis patients called Nocturnal Home Hemodialysis (NHHD) within the past few years. This new method allows patients to complete treatments within their own homes privately. These patient’s self-administer hemodialysis “for 6 to 8 hours‚ 5 to 6 nights

that the lower the concentration of the solute‚ the faster that osmosis will happen in the solvent. To start we grabbed 5 strips of dialysis tubing‚ 10 orange clamps‚ and beakers labeled 1 through 5. After we got those supplies we soaked the dialysis tubing until it softened. We then clamped on end of each dialysis tube. After this was done we filled each dialysis tube with 10 mL of a specific concentration of liquid and then clamped the other end. One with tap water‚ one with 20% sucrose‚ one with

We observed that the permeability of the dialysis tubes‚ which is our permeable “membrane”‚ depends on the concentration of the sucrose‚ not only is it important how permeable the tube is but also the rate at which osmosis is occurring. Water moves across the selectively permeable membrane of the dialysis tubing much easier than sucrose sugar does. The water moved to reach equilibrium between the solutions. Sucrose must be

There are no miracle drugs that can revive a failed kidney‚ leaving dialysis or kidney transplantation as the only possible treatments. By legalizing organ selling lives would be saved.
