|
what is hemodyasis-
|
the pt is attached to a dialyzer
by way of av fistula this kidney functions like a artificial kidney 3-4 times/week |

|
redness pain swelling are common, nurse feels warmth over fistula, is r/t presence of microorganisms

|
medical mang of stones,
|
control obstruction and releive pain NSAIDS, analgesics, hot baths moist heat to flank areas
