Question

select all the correct answers. which three statements about dialysis are true? its a time - consuming procedure. it requires the patient to be on antirejection medication. it uses a machine to purify blood. its a temporary remedy for renal failure. it requires matching the patients blood with that of the donor.

Explanation:

Dialysis is a treatment for renal failure. It uses a machine (dialyzer) to purify the blood. It is a time - consuming process (usually several hours per session, multiple times a week).

• Matching the patient's blood with a donor's blood is relevant for organ transplants (like kidney transplants), not dialysis.
• Antirejection medication is for organ transplant patients (to prevent the body from rejecting the donor organ), not for dialysis.

Answer:

• It's a temporary remedy for renal failure.
• It uses a machine to purify blood.
• It's a time - consuming procedure.
