There should be a policy in your company exactly how to do it. In mine, only an RN can push or remove citric, not techs. We have a policy in our company (one of the Big Two).

Thanks ☺ blue eyes! 

Would you like Kindly share about the knowledge to me ?? Thanks!! Because in our company, never use Citric for dialysis, we only use it for CRRT

If your company doesn't have a policy, please refer to management. Using someone else's info could get you into hot water, if it doesn't align with your company's other policies

I echo Hoosier. Ask your manager/charge nurse about this. Good luck.
