pre final OSCE Learning points

PRE FINAL OSCE LEARNING POINTS  05/12 /23  OSCE QUESTIONS :  1) Dialysis Disequilibrium syndrome?     Dialysis disequilibrium syndrome (DDS)   refers to an array of neurological           manifestations seen during or following   dialysis, primarily after the new initiation   of dialysis.However, it can also be seen in   chronic dialysis patients who miss their   regular dialysis treatments. This   syndrome is thought to arise from fluid   shifts during hemodialysis, causing   cerebral edema and a wide variety of   neurological symptoms. In continuous   renal replacement therapies (CRRT),   where fluid shift is limited, dialysis   disequilibrium syndrome is rarely     reported. The common risk factors that predispose a patient to dialysis dysequilibrium syndrome are  First hemodialysis treatment High blood urea nitrogen (BUN) (above 175 mg/dL or 60 mmol/L) before initiation of dialysis Extremes of age – children and elderly Sudden change in dialysis regimen Pre-existing neurological di
