🔥 SOLUTE CONTROL 🔥

Kidney Replacement Therapy #KRT & #AKI

One ring to rule them all To this day: NO difference in outcomes between

- #CRRT vs HD/ PIRRT
- Difussion vs Convection
- Std vs ⬆️ dose
- Early vs Late ⏰

The problem is #AKI & what it represents. #KRT can’t change that, no matter how you do it

💥SOLUTE & VOLUME control💥
becomes the only GOAL

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
