It's a really interesting question: PD, HD or CRRT post cardiac surgery? <br /><br />I like that with PD I can ramp up ultrafiltration at odd hours if need be without the logistics of calling in a dialysis nurse and getting the machine wheeled in. Our post cardiac surgery patients are often on a cocktail of drips and getting behind on volume can be a real issue. <br /><br />CRRT is also a nice option when daily obligate ins are high and the patient is already in the unit.Graham Abrahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10428974188364898281noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4230162007222918868.post-5030829454147284082012-04-28T12:23:22.556-04:002012-04-28T12:23:22.556-04:00Great post Graham.

Only 24 hour immediate post op period seem to be crucial and then the pts tolerate PD well thereafter.The Bean MDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09517322171828362354noreply@blogger.com
