🆕 Blog Unveiled: Timing of RRT – A Clinical Tightrope 🎯
When kidneys falter and lungs flood… do you act fast or wait it out?
The latest Nephrocritical Care Blog dives into one of the most controversial ICU decisions:
“When is the right time to start RRT?”
Dr. Valentine Lobo takes you deep into the grey zone—

His take?
“The decision to dialyze should never be protocol-driven. It’s a synthesis—of risk, physiology, and anticipation.”
Inside this blog:
✅ Real-world case of AKI in heart failure
✅ Role of frusemide stress test, VEXUS, and bicarbonate
✅ High-stakes insights for ICU decision-making

Time for another #POCUS pitfalls thread 🧵: the infamous IVC 🤩

When I first started teaching POCUS, I actually disliked the IVC because it was often poorly done or incorrectly interpreted ❌
I have now come to love the IVC, BUT you have to do it right!
