Explore controversial, cutting-edge, and timely topics that are directly applicable to the care of critically ill patients during this full-day course. The course content will engage participants in a variety of didactic and panel discussions on new initiatives in the diagnosis, management, and prognostication of coma patients; acute respiratory distress syndrome; toxidromes and illicit drug abuse in the ICU, acute mechanical circulatory support; and more. After the course, attendees will have access to extended presentations along with seven additional presentations not covered during the in-person course.

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 half-day course will review these complex interactions and explore appropriate and timely diagnostic tools and adjusting therapeutic interventions to improve outcomes in patients with AKI.
