There is no urea whatsoever in dialysis fluid, there is not a 'low concentration'.

Also, if you have glucose in your blood you are fine (unless you have too much or too little); glucose in your urine is worrying though, it probably means you have diabetes or high blood pressure.

We probably don't need to know about where you can travel to stay on dialysis by the NHS, but i suppose you never know what might come up in the exam.

I'm just making sure people know the right information and don't get confused. It's a good quiz anyway :)
