CVVH / CRRT: What Is It And Why We Should Use It More

We are thrilled to invite all perfusionists and healthcare professionals to an engaging and informative webinar that aims to demystify Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy (CRRT) and Veno-Venous Hemofiltration (CVVH). Led by distinguished experts in the field, Joseph Basha and Patrick O'Toole, this course is a unique opportunity to deepen your understanding of these vital techniques and explore their significance in patient care.

CRRT and CVVH have emerged as essential therapies in critical care settings, playing a crucial role in managing patients with acute kidney injury and fluid imbalances. As a perfusionist, it is vital to comprehend the intricacies of these procedures and their potential impact on patient outcomes.

Throughout this comprehensive webinar, Joseph Basha and Patrick O'Toole, both seasoned perfusionists, will delve into the fundamental principles of CRRT and CVVH. They will guide you through the mechanisms, applications, and benefits of these continuous renal replacement therapies, shedding light on how they differ from conventional intermittent dialysis methods.

The core focus of this course will be the exploration of why CRRT and CVVH should be utilized more frequently in clinical practice. Joseph Basha and Patrick O'Toole will present compelling evidence and real-life case studies that demonstrate the advantages of these therapies, particularly in managing fluid balance and mitigating risks associated with fluid overload in critically ill patients. Moreover, they will discuss the potential impact on mortality rates and the improved patient outcomes observed with the use of CRRT and CVVH.

As esteemed experts and advocates for patient-centered care, Joseph Basha and Patrick O'Toole are dedicated to sharing their extensive knowledge and experiences in this field. They will provide valuable insights into the integration of CRRT and CVVH into existing treatment protocols, empowering attendees to implement these techniques more effectively and confidently in their respective healthcare settings.
