Today I woke up and realized I had homework assigned by @ArgaizR

He asked me to complement his thread about the recent NEJM case, regarding the CRRT approach. Why me? 🤷🏻‍♂️ who knows

but I always turn in my homework, so here it is ——-thread 🧵 #CRRT #COVID19 #AKI
So the case is very representative of what we are all seeing in #COVID19 patients:

1️⃣A lot of AKI
2️⃣Intrinsic etiology (host or direct)
3️⃣Many need KRT (RRT)
4️⃣KRT resources are not enough
5️⃣A lot of circuit clotting
6️⃣Nephrologists with headaches

👇
The problem:

Many patients need KRT at the same time, fancy CRRT prescriptions (low efficiency, continuous, kidney like) are not practical, enough or feasible do to clotting

Just like a normal non pandemic day in Mexico 🇲🇽
