مريض على غسيل بريتوني، كمية السائل الخارج أقل بكثير من الداخل، والسائل صافٍ. أي سبب شائع يُفحص أولاً؟

A client on peritoneal dialysis drains much less than was instilled; the fluid is clear. Which common cause is checked first?

1. Long-standing high blood pressure
2. Eating little the previous day
3. Constipation or a kinked tube
4. Drinking too much water before the exchange

Answer: C) Constipation or a kinked tube. Constipation is a leading cause of poor drainage as it compresses the catheter. Check the tubing, reposition the client and treat constipation.
