🕒 48h is the sweet spot.
…- More isn't better!
👉🏽 another reminder in critical care: knowing when to stop is as important as knowing when to start!
#AKi#health#protein
Timing matters. 🕒
IV amino acids for kidney protection in cardiac surgery:
✅ ≤48h → benefit
⚠️ >48h → possible harm (↑urea, ↑ICU mortality?)
���️ A 48h window may be the sweet spot

👉 Nutrition in the ICU is not a checkbox — it is a dynamic, physiology-driven intervent. that requires contin. reassessment. Further key messages @ISICEM :
🔹 Micronutrients: more ≠ better
🔹 Protein: we underdeliver, but pls. stay <1.3g!
🔹 Timing matters
🔹 Calories = a drug
Day -1 of #ISICEM2026 is off to a great start with the pre-courses! Deep dives into measuring metabolic tolerance & GI function to better guide enteral & parenteral feeding. Great discussions on optimizing icu nutrition 🏥💉📊 #ICU#CriticalCare#Nutrition
How should we really feed the injured brain? ⚡️🧠
💡Key takeaway: Start low, go slow. Early low-dose enteral nutrition is preferred—early full feeding may cause harm.

Is nutrition just "supportive care" for the injured brain? 🧠 We argue it's a modifiable therapy that can influence recovery.

@LifeWithoutDiet While reflecting on what’s all is important for a “perfect” & personalized feeding strategy I realized (again) the key role of dedicated people/dietians …& doubt that AI can take it over soon 🫶🏽
@LifeWithoutDiet ‼️..Checking 1/day seems neither enough nor appropriate. AI might be a good strategy, which however needs to be trained by experts/dieticians….💪🏽..

As 2025 comes to a close, the ERAS Cardiac Society thanks the global community advancing enhanced recovery after cardiac surgery.
Grounded in evidence and collaboration, we remain focused on improving patient recovery and expanding education and implementation in 2026.

For critically ill patients who had both severe metabolic acidemia and moderate to severe acute kidney injury, sodium bicarbonate therapy did not significantly decrease day 90 all-cause mortality.

@giovannilandoni@CritCareReviews@JAMA_current Great & important study!
👉🏽…Timing, dose & duration are a complex challenges, which we are facing on our field.
There is no doubt that vitamin c is important - the question is “when” and “how” ….
Presented at CCR Down Under 2025:
In a randomized trial involving critically ill patients undergoing intubation in EDs or ICUs, the use of ketamine for the induction of anesthesia did not lead to significantly lower in-hospital mortality than etomidate. Full trial results: https://t.co/ovSy71Gi1j
