Answer: Predialysis care involving documentation of vital signs

Explanation:

The first nursing care carried out for a dialysis patient is usually a predialysis care and this involves documenting vital signs including temperature, blood pressure, (not forgetting orthostatic blood pressure), pulse rate, respiratory rate, and even lung sounds.

They are called baseline data and they help the fluid volume assessment of the patient. Other predialysis nursing care include weight measurements, fluids and dietary restrictions, and even explanations of the various procedures expected to be carried out and possible sensations that will be felt in the process

Why are people inclined to get defensive over a passive-aggressive comment? (online)
melisa1 [442]
A passive-aggressive comment can insulting or the person may be wanting to manipulate another. This can also frustrate someone because they would like to get to the point of the problem, while a passive-aggressive person would not. I ultimately feel as if it’s different for every person. In general passive aggressive people like to manipulate and never give direct requests.
