This encapsulates my feelings on FeNa reasonably well. It still has some good use-cases, but we need to stop using it indiscriminately for every AKI!

Getting caught up on my HoP episodes!
On the subjevt of poisonings: I wanted to share this diagram to estimate the best method to use to enhance elimination from the body.
I also can't overstate how helpful poison control is in these situations. Make sure to call them!!

(6) The authors proposed comparing ABG/BMP might help diagnose equipment errors.
My conclusion: both methods have potential pitfalls For bizarre results, checking against the *other* method might help confirm that it's real (both directions!).
Oh and definitely check an ABG in a lipidemic pt :)

Although, I could have guessed for this one there'd be some buy-in/bias, haha

(3) I'm curious if there was some unlucky randomization causing selection bias. I've highlighted some of the interesting in-group differences

OK, so I've read the article here are my thoughts. (1) in the methods they est their incidence of AKI as 25% but the standard care group had a primary outside incidence of ~40%! Heterogeneity of definition? (2) Odd that individ. components of 1° outcome was not sig but composite was? (3)...
