Hi, it’s Patrik Hutzel from intensivecarehotline.com with another quick tip for families in intensive care.

So, today’s tip is about a client that we’re working with who has their 33-year-old brother in ICU after cardiac arrest and he’s not waking up, and he has hypoxic brain injury. It’s part of the cardiac arrest because he had CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) for quite some time and he’s not waking up now. Now, like many other patients in the ICU, the kidneys are failing, and the ICU is basically denying dialysis or hemofiltration for him while his blood pressure keeps going down and they’re saying he’s not a candidate for dialysis or hemofiltration.

Now, I agree he’s probably not a candidate for dialysis, because dialysis would make a low blood pressure much lower, but hemofiltration is a much more gentler approach. Therefore, he should be a candidate for hemofiltration to save his life and give him a chance. He’s only been in ICU for three weeks, which is not a long time.
