Glad to have received this opportunity of discussing “Optimising Renal Replacement Therapy in AKI” at SUMECON 2026, Subharti Medical College Meerut. It was a wonderful Interaction, to say the least.
Shared key messages about dialysis in AKI
- Early initiation of dialysis isn’t always the rule
- Decision to initiate dialysis is guided mainly by compelling indications like hyperkalemia, fluid overload and metabolic acidosis
- Choice of dialysis be guided by hemodynamic status, availability, skill-set and experience of staff, lab support and ofcourse finances.
- Dose and duration is generally guided by recovery of kidney functions, volume status of the patient and what additional benefits can be drawn from dialysis should we choose to continue it.
