Join the ISN Eastern and Central Europe Regional Board for an in-depth webinar exploring the complex management of acute kidney injury (AKI) and the application of renal replacement therapy (RRT) and extracorporeal blood purification (EBP) in critically ill patients. Tailored for nephrologists, intensivists, and ICU teams, this session emphasizes the interdisciplinary collaboration essential for delivering optimal care in high-acuity settings. Special attention will be given to the role of sepsis, a frequent and life-threatening condition where early intervention and appropriate RRT modalities can significantly impact outcomes.
The event will also highlight how modern extracorporeal therapies are being leveraged not only for renal support but also as part of multi-organ support strategies, particularly in cases of overwhelming systemic inflammation. This webinar offers participants actionable insights to enhance clinical decision-making, optimize therapy timing, and expand their understanding of evolving critical care nephrology practices.
Learning Objectives:
-
Analyze core modalities, operational principles, and individualized dosing strategies for RRT in ICU patients.
-
Identify the best timing to initiate or discontinue RRT based on current evidence to maximize recovery.
-
Understand the expanding clinical rationale behind EBP use in managing sepsis and systemic inflammatory states.
-
Discover how EBP extends beyond kidney support to aid in the stabilization of multiple organ systems.
-
Appreciate the growing integration of nephrology into ICU protocols and the importance of a unified care approach.
