Correct Answer:
The patient does not obtain the desired quantity of ultrafiltration. The other 3 options above are incorrect.
With SCUF, the most common problem is the patient not obtaining the desired quantity of
ultrafiltration. The cause of this is that there may be clotting of the hemofilter or a
decrease in blood flow through the circuit.
Other causes of a low ultrafiltration rate can be:
A kink in the tubing
A problem with the patient’s access.
A drop in the patient’s arterial pressure. |
