@nursesinfonotes: Hemodialysis uses a dialyzer (artificial kidney) and a dialysis machine to clean the patient’s blood. The patient’s blood is diverted through the machine, where it is filtered and then returned to the body. ⚠️ Common Indications: • Chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 5 • Acute kidney injury (AKI) not responding to other treatments • Severe electrolyte imbalances (e.g., hyperkalemia) • Uremic symptoms (e.g., pericarditis, encephalopathy) #nursetoks #studysmart #nursestiktok #nursestiktok #medicalstudent #fyp #fyppppppppppppppppppppppp #nursesnotes #student #fypage #medical
