Electrolytes, Dialysis Fluid

Description

The Electrolytes, Dialysis Fluid test analyzes the composition of electrolytes in the fluid used for dialysis treatments. This test is crucial for ensuring that the dialysis fluid has the correct balance of electrolytes, typically including sodium, potassium, calcium, magnesium, chloride, and bicarbonate. Proper electrolyte composition is essential for effective dialysis treatment, as it helps maintain the patient’s electrolyte balance and prevents complications. Regular testing of dialysis fluid electrolytes helps healthcare providers optimize the dialysis prescription, ensure treatment efficacy, and maintain patient safety during renal replacement therapy.
