Renal Replacement Therapy in Novel Respiratory Pathogen Patients

Description
Printable flyer infographic about Renal Replacement Therapy in Novel Respiratory Pathogen Patients: Increased Need for Renal Replacement Therapy (RRT).
During a novel respiratory pathogen pandemic, the need for RRT may increase. In some cases, facilities may be unable to keep up with demand for RRT. Adaptive strategies include identifying the limitations on the available forms of dialysis. Short-term measures may include limiting dialysis duration and frequency, whether hemodialysis (HD) or continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), to optimize the machines' use for more patients. Other measures may include bringing in additional resources, whether for HD and CRRT.
