Okay, so the question is, which three statements about dialysis is true? so we have the patient, right? so the patient will, let's do this.
00:51
Okay, so drawn this out.
00:53
So with dialysis, how this works is that blood from the patient is going to be pumped into the machine, and then this is going to get pumped back into the patient.
01:13
Now the thing is, let's say the patient is going through dialysis because the blood has some form of contaminant.
01:24
And so blood coming in may be contaminated, but blood coming out will be clean.
01:34
So clean blood.
01:38
And so as this is happening, the dialysis fluid, the clean fluid is going to go in the opposite direction, have the opposite flow.
01:48
And that gets...
01:55
What that is going to do is it's going to essentially grab the impurities and bring it into...
02:04
And essentially filter it out.
02:06
So the point of dialysis is to filter blood.
02:09
The impurities can be anything from toxins, bad proteins, any sort of toxemia can be dialized out.
02:26
So it really depends on the point.
02:29
But it's...
02:29
With the point of this is to filter out various contaminants.
02:33
And this actually can't, it's not necessarily bad contaminants, quote unquote.
02:37
It's just waste products.
02:39
So dialysis occurs when, typically when you have renal failure.
02:42
So kidney failure, kidneys do this on a natural basis.
02:46
But if your kidneys fail, then you have to go in for a dialysis.
02:50
Because your kidneys no longer can filter the blood.
02:53
And this is just basic waste products, right? this is eventually stuff that gets, um, that we excrete out.
02:59
Or basically we either excrete out via whatever, so via waste or urinate out...
