New study shows extended hemodialysis (HD) may improve survival rates except for those aged 75+. In this insightful article by Matthew A. Roberts, MD, learn about the risks and benefits associated with extended HD, key subgroup findings, and the importance of individual patient considerations in treatment decisions. A must-read for nephrologists and healthcare professionals navigating dialysis care. #Hemodialysis #Nephrology #PatientCare #HealthcareResearch

The number of patients with CKD is steadily increasing - but can providers keep up? The increasing use of AI and other technological advances - among other trends - may make many nephrology groups rethink the way they manage their patients with chronic conditions. KidneyNews Online recapped the discussion at the American Society of Nephrology Kidney Week 2023. https://hubs.ly/Q02fs0vP0 #nephrology #KidneyWeek2023 #CKD #ChronicKidneyDisease #HealthcareDelivery #ChronicCareManagement #ChronicConditions

Did you know that in critically ill patients with severe AKI, initiation of Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) as compared to Intermittent Hemodialysis (IHD), may be associated with a significant reduction in the composite outcome of death or Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT) dependence? A retrospective analysis (N=2196) of the STARRT-AKI trial found that CRRT was associated with a lower risk of the composite of all-cause mortality or RRT dependence 90-days after randomization compared to IHD.¹ Learn more at https://bit.ly/41ifML7 Reference: 1.

Let us learn from the experts....

A recent analysis in CJASN highlights chlorthalidone's BP-lowering effects in advanced CKD patients. While the study found that chlorthalidone significantly reduced blood pressure, the mediation analysis showed that changes in volume-related mediators, like body weight and natriuretic peptide, only explained a small part of this effect. Over 80% of BP reduction was attributed to direct effects rather than fluid-related mechanisms. This suggests that chlorthalidone’s benefits go beyond volume control, with potential contributions from reduced vascular resistance and anti-inflammatory effects. https://lnkd.in/exuM5-sn #CKD #BloodPressure #Chlorthalidone #Hypertension #Nephrology #CardiovascularHealth #ClinicalTrials #KidneyCare #ThiazideDiuretics #AdvancedCKD #Nephrohealth_KA #DrAlbertoReino
