More than 50% of patients develop acute kidney injury (AKI) in the ICU during critical illness. Mortality among patients with AKI and multiorgan failure in the ICU is reported to exceed 50%. Understanding physiologic interactions between the kidney and other organs, including the heart and lungs, is of utmost importance to streamline management strategies during AKI. Approximately 2% to 30% of AKI survivors in the ICU progress to end-stage renal disease. Patients who recover renal function during their ICU stay also have a significant risk of developing progressive renal dysfunction. This online course reviews these complex interactions and explores appropriate and timely diagnostic tools and adjusting therapeutic interventions to improve outcomes in patients with AKI.

Equip yourself with foundational skills and perspectives necessary to leverage artificial intelligence (AI) effectively and responsibly in critical care environments. Experts will discuss various applications of AI, using real-world demonstrations of how these technologies can enhance patient outcomes, streamline workflows, and support clinical decisionmaking. Gain insights into the practical aspects of AI implementation and integration within healthcare settings, addressing the technical, organizational, and infrastructural challenges involved. The course also emphasizes the importance of ethical and legal considerations, fostering a critical understanding of data privacy, consent, accountability, and the potential biases inherent in AI systems.
Review the latest research and findings about the human microbiome, conservatively estimated at 10 trillion bacteria and counting. With an emphasis on practical knowledge and translational research, these findings can inform critical care clinicians about how health can be restored and lives saved in the intensive care unit setting. Knowledge of the microbiome in the context of both normal and altered physiology helps clinicians make meaningful management decisions that have the potential to enhance critical care outcomes.

Explore venoarterial and venovenous ECMO concepts using patient case scenarios during either one-day course. In a small-group setting, participants have an opportunity for interactive learning and troubleshooting of clinical cases. This course is structured for multiprofessional learning at various stages of experience. Learners should have completed the ELSO Virtual ECMO Training Course or have a strong foundational knowledge of ECMO patient care.
