Welcome

Dear Tim,

as far as I know this is the first patient treated with CAVH in the world. We performed this treatment in Vicenza in 1984 and the patient survived. After that we published the first series of 4 newborns treated with CAVH (Kidney

International 1986) . You made a great deal of progress since then and even more with this meeting. Best Wishes Claudio Ronco

Year of RRT

Why has this become common? Work in vascular access Dedicated staff who is interested in these

children Patients continue to be sicker then

historically Automated machinery has made the care

easier Anticoagulation protocols have made it easier

CRRT: Who does it?

Outside of NA > 70% of all CRRT done by Intensivists

Within NA USA ~ 60% done by Nephrology but

often determined by manpower Adult Nephrologists = Adult Intensivists Pediatric Nephrologists < Pediatric Intensivists

Canada ~ 50% done by Nephrology

Who really does CRRT?

Nursing staff of the

Dialysis units- thank you Critical Care units- thank you Neonatal intensive Care units- thank

you

What is the purpose of this meeting?

To bring together those in the field who deal with any modality of MOSF with RRT who are willing to listen and learn, to talk and to exchange

There are no experts in this field!! “If you quit learning then it is time to go home”

(actually he said get the hell out before you hurt someone!)
