Dialysis model saves lives and millions

https://www.newsbeep.com/241229/

A world-first South Auckland dialysis model is being praised for saving lives, restoring dignity, and easing pressure on…

And it kills me when patient says something like “oh the hospital doc said that medicine was hurting my kidneys”
And then there’s reluctance to resume.

So I try to teach trainees to be mindful of their choice of words if holding RASi is indeed necessary.

Keep Calm & Carry On
Inhibiting RAS 👑

#Kidneywk #Nephjc

👉 www.nephjc.com/news/stopacei
👉 www.nephjc.com/news/aceing-...

Stopping RASi should be the last resort.
#Kidneywk

Our new best friends help to maintain our old best friends.

RASi 🤝 SGLT2i 🤝 GLP1ra
#Kidneywk #Flozinate

Fruits & vegetables 🍊🥑🥦are ⭐️NOT⭐️ the problem.

❌Myth: restricting dietary K is useful to prevent hyperkalemia

❌Myth: Avoid fruits/veg - the main source of dietary K+

#Kidneywk

Dietary potassium can be good for you.
AND there is little to no correlation btwn dietary K intake & serum K level (even in pts w/ CKD).
#Kidneywk

A call to action 🚨📢

Let’s keep patients on health-improving & life-saving therapy
#Kidneywk

HyperK-related RASi discontinuation or down-titration was a/w higher risk of cardiorenal events vs maintained or up-titrated RASi.

And when RASi gets held, we’re not good at restarting them.
#Kidneywk

Our concern is safety, hyperK can be dangerous. But is stopping RAS really safe… not really.
#Kidneywk

Hyperkalemia 😣
#kidneywk

I’m asking this to trainees in the CKD clinic every single time.
Wait, why was this patient’s ACEi/ARB stopped?!? 🧐
#Kidneywk

What happens when we stop ACEi/ARBs?? Nothing good…

#Kidneywk

RAS blockade is protective

Decrease CV events
Decrease CKD progression
Decrease HF hospitalization
Etc etc
#Kidneywk

And the effect is maintained even with low eGFR!
