2/2 Practice guidelines recommend admitting a patient such as this. But really, what benefit does the hospital offer? Daily labs? Bed rails up at night to prevent a fall? Code blue if sudden collapse? Salvage from an ICH? Who are we treating? The patient or ourselves?

SPRINT showed that intensive lowering of systolic BP increased the risk of incident CKD and episodes of AKI. A study looked at legacy effect of intensive vs. standard systolic BP lowering on longer-term incidence of kidney failure. Rates of dialysis or transplantation were higher

CKD is a risk factor for AKI. This is partly explained by the fact that the higher the baseline creatinine the lower the percent rise in creatinine required to meet the KDIGO definition of AKI

For Kidney Health Advocates- lets all get on the same page: 1) only <5% of incident CKD is caused by HTN;2) progression of CKD can be slowed by treatment of HTN when proteinuria is concomitantly present; 3) HTN is mostly consequent to CKD, not caused by CKD.

WONDABYNE, 65km from Central, is a famous, isolated station serving a collection of shacks in dense forest. It has two short platforms that only fit one train door. They have small shelters and a level crossing between. It's the only station in Australia with no road access (1/2)
