Extract:


Question 1 of 5

A nurse is caring for a client who is undergoing initial peritoneal dialysis. Which of the following should the nurse report immediately to the provider?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: Purulent dialysate outflow. This should be reported immediately to the provider because it indicates a possible infection in the peritoneal cavity, which can lead to peritonitis. Purulent discharge may be a sign of bacterial contamination and requires prompt medical intervention to prevent serious complications. Reporting this promptly allows for timely treatment initiation. Blood-tinged dialysate outflow (choice
B) may be a normal finding initially. Reporting of fullness with dialysate dwelling (choice
C) could indicate inadequate drainage or fluid overload, but it is not as urgent as an infection. Discomfort during dialysate inflow (choice
D) could be due to catheter placement issues or improper technique, which can be addressed after ensuring there is no infection.
