Answer:

Confirmation Bias

Explanation:

Confirmation bias is how one calls the tendency to interpret, favor, recall, and search for information in a way that it only confirms one's preexisting beliefs or hypotheses. Kayla is encountering a case of these propensities when she's evading data that would repudiate her convictions about the smartphone and gives uncommon consideration to the data that would bolster her decision. Also, it is important to add that the Selective Exposure theory expresses that individuals may have a propensity to favor data that strengthen their convictions while giving little consideration to data that would negate them.

Drupady [299]

If a patient with ascites does not respond to sodium restriction and diuretic therapy, excess fluid may be removed from the abdomen by: paracentesis

<h3>What is paracentesis?</h3>

Paracentesis is the term used to describe the procedure known as peritoneocentesis, which involves inserting a needle into the peritoneal cavity to sample the peritoneal fluid (from the Greek v, "to pierce").

In particular, if medicine is unable to remove the fluid from the peritoneal cavity, surgery is used. The most common sign is developed ascites in cirrhotic individuals.

The location of the procedure is typically an outpatient clinic or a doctor's office. When carried out by a qualified practitioner, there is normally very little risk of infection, serious bleeding, or perforating a loop of the bowel. These last two risks can be considerably decreased by using ultrasonic guidance.
