Hi guys! I would also love to know the answer to this ...we set out machines to 300 per hr also and its because its the way its always been done...to prevent backfiltration. I would think with the technological advances, our machines would prevent anything that would pose any harm to the patient...hope we get some responses! what machines do you use? also, I heard this applies with only the high-flux dialyzers..

I just passed my exam a couple months ago. I took it just to take it, no pay raises or anything like that... It gives me some type of satisfaction to have extra credentials to show others that I know what I'm talking about. I also used the Core Curriculum and Nephrology Nursing purchased through ANNA. It only took a hour to complete, even though you are allotted 4. I studied for about 4 months prior to taking. I think its more a personal goal than for extra $$... for me, it was worth it. Good luck if you decide to take it
