ISN Eastern and Central Europe Webinar: Acute kidney injury and RRT/EBP in critically ill patients

  • 2 PM CEST

Effective management of renal replacement therapy (RRT) in acute settings, particularly in intensive care units (ICUs), requires a multidisciplinary approach involving both nephrologists and intensivists. This webinar highlights the critical role of nephrologists in critical care, with a special focus on sepsis, where morbidity and mortality remain a major challenge. Gain essential insights into RRT modalities, optimal timing, and the evolving role of extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) as an organ support strategy beyond traditional renal indications.

 

Learning objectives:

  • Review key modalities, basic principles, and dosing strategies for RRT in critically ill patients.

  • Understand the optimal timing for initiation and termination of RRT to improve patient outcomes.

  • Explore the role and rationale behind extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) in sepsis and other critical illnesses.

  • Recognize how EBP can support organ function beyond traditional renal support.

  • Enhance your understanding of critical care nephrology’s growing importance in multidisciplinary ICU management.
