Is this the earliest description of contrast nephropathy from 1959?

Several aspects still key
- immediate oliguria
- recovery by 2 weeks
- false positive urine protein
- high dose contrast

Officially graduated from #CriticalCare fellowship. It’s been a unique and fulfilling journey taking a break from my #Nephrology associate professor role to return as a trainee. Strengthened my #POCUS foundation, built #TEE skills, and now looking forward to returning as #NephCrit.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of Prof. Rinaldo Bellomo — a pioneer in critical care nephrology, a brilliant mind, and a generous mentor.

His legacy will live on through the countless intensivists he inspired and the lives his work transformed.

Our thoughts are with his loved ones.

PO meds are so hot right now (PO=IV)

but in critically ill patients (esp with enteral feeding tubes), the pharmacology gets tricky & data is often scant

when the patient starts vomiting... do we redose everything?

IMHO the default route for live-saving meds in ICU should still be IV

My first post on Bluesky is my saddest - saying goodbye to a legend of the ICU world. Rinaldo's enthusiam, passion and drive for ICU research was second to none. A mentor & friend to so many of us.
