Kidney Dialysis Patients:
The production of a critical chemical solution used during kidney dialysis has been delayedbecause one of the two facilities that manufacture the solution was destroyed by a massive fire. As a result, hospitals and clinics are struggling to provide care to kidney dialysis patients awaiting a kidney transplant. As Chief Nephrologist (kidney doctor) at your hospital, you mustcreate a dialysis schedule that will treat the greatest number of dialysis patients using the limited supply of the chemical solutionavailable.After considering the needs (frequency and duration of treatment) of all 200 dialysis patients, you realize that it is impossible to fully treat all the patients using the 10dialysis machines the hospital owns. Half of the patients require dialysis less frequently(1 to 3 days a week) and for shorter durations(2 to 4 hours) becausethey are younger, stronger, and at a lowerrisk of suffering total kidney failure in the near future; however, interruptions to their treatment can have a long-term, negative impact on their condition. The other half of the patients require dialysis more frequently(4 to 7 days a week)and for longer durations(6 to 10 hours)because they areolder, weaker, and at a higherrisk of suffering total kidney failurein the near future; furthermore, interruptions to their treatment can have a significant, negative impact on their condition including total kidney failure and death.You must decide how to best treatall of the kidney dialysispatients.
