hello im a new member of this interesting web site for nurses. in view of youre problem about CVVHD is more focus on trouble shooting of the machine and what to do if the patient become unstable .. first is to consider to slow down the blood flow if blood pressure becomes compromised because the machine pumps around 5 liters of blood in and out of the machine that may affect patients cardio vascular status. other consideration is to ask the docs to start some inotropes to tighten vascular vessels and increased blood pressure.. to trouble shoot the machines liked prisma...the company that supplies this provides information on how to trouble shoot if the machines alarms RE: high pressure on return...they provide step by step measures on how to trouble shoot those incidents the nephrologist or the dialysis nurse should have those trouble shooting guides and u can ask them to have one in each machine in case no one knows how to fix it a helpful guide is always available...training on these machines and other machines is vital, it should be a protocol in every unit to provide such training on these machines ...which sometimes the manufacturer provided the training....HOPE I HELP....
