A nurse is teaching a client who has chronic kidney disease about the process of ambulatory peritoneal dialysis. Which of the following information should the nurse include in the teaching?
Explanation & Rationale
A. Fewer dietary and fluid restrictions are generally needed with peritoneal dialysis because it is done more continuously, allowing for better waste and fluid balance. B. Rigid schedules are more typical of in-center hemodialysis; peritoneal dialysis offers more flexibility. C. History of abdominal surgery may cause adhesions or scarring, making peritoneal dialysis less suitable. D. Use of a dialyzer applies to hemodialysis, not peritoneal dialysis, which uses the peritoneal membrane as the filter.
