Answer to Question 1

C
C. Hanging two bags promotes timely organized follow-up exchanges.
A. Dialysate is warmed by dry heat through the use of warming pad, incubator, or microwave warming device.
B. Infuse the solution over prescribed time, usually 2 L/10-15 min.
D. Dwell time for IPD is usually 30 minutes.

Answer to Question 2

A
Normal findings in a patient with a postoperative ostomy that is healing include a stoma that is moist and reddish-pink, skin that is intact and free of irritation, and sutures that are intact. The stoma is edematous initially and shrinks over the next 4 to 6 weeks. A necrotic stoma is manifested by a purple or black color and a dry instead of moist texture. The stoma is functioning normally when the stoma drains a moderate amount of liquid or soft stool and flatus in the pouch. Flatus indicates the return of peristalsis after surgery. Flatus is noted by bulging of the pouch. (Flatus may not be observable if the pouch has a gas filter.)
