Always brilliant talks by Theodore Saad - central venous occlusions in hemodialysis patients VEITHsymposium


I love seeing these points so clear & simple. Yet I’ve never mastered them, despite 100’s of presentations over 40yrs. Guilty of all charges! It is HARD to follow these tips! I’m working on 2 big talks now…“This time” I’ll do it! Prayus Tailor MD, FASN Monnie Wasse, MD, MPH Aisha Shaikh Robert Shahverdyan, MD




Major milestone today: 1st ProKidney Corp. REACT injection at ChristianaCare ChristianaCare VIR Dr. Mohammed Ali. & Frenova® team, Jennie Turner, Willow Clouse, Ben Loder, Drs. Joseph Stavas & Michael Brunner. Entering era of regenerative medicine! prokidney.com/our-technology…


youtube.com/shorts/a8sWwey… Patient referred for “pulsatile exam.” Nope! ASDIN Renal Fellow Network Robert Shahverdyan, MD Monnie Wasse, MD, MPH ChristianaCare Med-Peds Residency ChristianaCare VIR Neghae Mawla, MD Mark Lessne, MD

Is there a universally-accepted shorthand for "Tunneled, cuffed, venous HD catheter?" KDOQI & recent reporting guidelines unclear. Some terms, e.g., CVC, Permcath IMO not OK. We use "Tunneled Dialysis Catheter," or "TDC." ASDIN Monnie Wasse, MD, MPH Edgar V. Lerma 🇵🇭 VascularAccessSociety #TDC

It drives me absolutely bat s—t crazy that pharmacy continues to insist on using Cockcroft-Gault for all pharmacokinetic analysis. eGFR is 54 ml/min. CG eat. is too high and almost certain to result in excessive dosing. Edgar V. Lerma 🇵🇭 Renal Fellow Network Prayus Tailor MD, FASN


Useful adages: (1) “If it doesn’t feel right, it ain’t right!” Wire went down nicely, but then met resistance, patient says, “ouch.” (2) “Listen to the patient!” Not a great idea to jam a 14 Fr catheter into the pericardiophrenic vein. Monnie Wasse, MD, MPH Renal Fellow Network ChristianaCare VIR


The coup is complete! Excellent session with all women panel at #VEITH23 with Monnie Wasse, MD, MPH Vandana Dua Niyyar Charmaine Lok @BrouwerMaier Samira Farouk, MD, MSCR ASDIN Renal Fellow Network Aisha Shaikh Renal Interventions VASA
