Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP&R Episode Seven: Surviving and Leading Through Disaster (or, Lessons from the Fire: Kidney Care in Crisis) Part One
Q: How did you track down patients and coordinate notifications about center closures and where to go for backup treatments once the disaster unfolded?
The guest explains using emergency contact binders, direct calls, door notices, and cross-center collaboration to direct patients to Satellite Santa Rosa, while noting the limitations of cell networks and the need for multiple communication channels.
EP&R Episode Seven: Surviving and Leading Through Disaster (or, Lessons from the Fire: Kidney Care in Crisis) Part One
Q: To start us off, could you take us back to that night in October 2017 and describe the first hours for you and your family when the Tubbs Fire broke out?
The host asks for a chronological recount of the first hours, highlighting power loss, strong winds, and the rapid escalation of the fire, followed by evacuation decisions and immediate clinical dilemmas, including staying and treating at Satellite Santa Rosa and coordinating patient locations as roads closed and communications failed.
nephSAP Guest Editor Interview: "AKI in 2026: Emerging Evidence and Evolving Clinical Practice"
Q: How should clinicians think about fluid management and dialysis decisions in light of current evidence?
Evidence supports a more restrictive fluid strategy in many AKI scenarios, with nuance for post-operative or septic patients; aggressive early dialysis has not consistently shown benefits, and strategies may include delayed or lower-dose RRT in certain contexts.
nephSAP Guest Editor Interview: "AKI in 2026: Emerging Evidence and Evolving Clinical Practice"
Q: What about the utility of biomarkers in practice—do they change when to perform a biopsy or start therapies like corticosteroids?
Biomarkers can identify injury sites and risk, but their positive and negative predictive values for guiding specific therapies are not yet definitive, necessitating trials and careful clinical judgment.
nephSAP Guest Editor Interview: "AKI in 2026: Emerging Evidence and Evolving Clinical Practice"
Q: Can you tell us a little bit your thoughts on where we are in our knowledge in using biomarker-guided management for AKI?
There is steady progress with biomarker panels and KDIGO frameworks, but the key unanswered question is whether measuring biomarkers actually changes clinical decisions in a meaningful way; more interventional trials are needed to test biomarker-guided care versus usual care.
