A. Dialysate that is too cold results in intolerance, cramps, and hypothermia.
B. Place client in semi-Fowler's or high-Fowler's position. This position promotes optimal lung expansion.
C. Infuse the solution over prescribed time, usually 2 L/10-15 min.
D. Unclamp outflow tubing and drain, usually for 20 minutes.
