For this third lesson, we talk about the basic principles that guide CRRT therapy. These principles are the foundation for how our therapy works and enables us to mimic the job of the nephron. The 4 principles are, diffusion, ultrafiltration, convection, and adsorption. I go through, thoroughly explaining what each principle is and how it impacts the therapy we provide to our patients. Understanding this foundational information is essential in understanding the next lesson on the modes of CRRT therapy.

    Couple extra facts: Adsorption removes pro-inflammatory mediators and anti inflammatory mediators, as patients in states like sepsis the scale is overwhelmingly in favor of pro inflammatory mediators, crrt can help balance the scale to remove those pesky molecules. Also when thinking of molecule size a professor I had helped me think of it like this : Glucose has a molecular weight of 180 (like a man in pounds) albumin can have a mw of 65000 (think an 18 wheeler) , for size comparisons when thinking what is filtered and what is not by a normal kidney or crrt circuit
  • @rachelevans2809
    Hi, I am a clinical nurse educator in critical care in the UK. I thought all 3 videos on CRRT were great, I have worked with various CRRT machines but never felt confident explaining it to others and this will really help me during clinical teaching sessions. Thanks
  • @yany.7679
    Can you please make a video about Swan set up and explanation please? When patients come out of OR post-op, the ways anesthesiologist set up the tubs/lines of swan are all different, it's confusing sometimes. Thank you. Really like your videos!
  • @mayah2690
    Always well explained. I'm learning a lot everytime I watch a new lesson. Thank you so much Eddie.
  • Thank you so much. Looked after my second patient on crrt today. Was bombarded with questions.😅
  • @chrislikens2444
    Great lesson! New ICU nurse trying to wrap my head around this. Thank you!
  • @Karen-us6nd
    Thank you again for all your videos! Just over a year of ICU experience here and I’m still overwhelmed. Your videos really break it down easily for me. Thank you and keep up the great work you’re doing here!
  • @tkcurtis25
    Thank you for another great video man! Always appreciated!
  • Viewed this video for a refresher for tomorrow's wet lab. Many aha moments while watching even after doing CRRT for a few years! Thank you!
  • I appreciate this so much, just started orientation on CTICU and I had a pt on crrt and impella. It was a lot to juggle but your videos have helped me understand a lot that some haven't explained so well. Thank you for your dedication, can't wait to see what else you have in store.
  • @explorewithmatt
    Thank you so much Ed. Im always watching your videos. I've been an ICU nurse for more than 4 years and in my previous hospital, we've been very dependent to Nephro nurses for CRRT. When I moved to UK recently, I was expected to do CRRT on my own and your videos are very timely as I try to refresh my knowledge on this. More power Ed. Can't wait for your upcoming videos.
  • @dinarosova9653
    I recently joined ICU nursing and CCRT was a part of my orientation,. I had four live sessions, which got me through, but left many unanswered questions. Your series wrapped my gaps up and I started to get it much better. So thank you for sharing your knowledge and experience!!!
  • @nagahyossef7343
    I am happy I have found your channel. I work as an RN inED, and I have learnt so much from these sessions, so thank you so much
  • @nurse_ruby
    Thanks for this! Very timely I am currently taking my critical care post grad and writing my assessment on CRRT. More power to you sir!
  • Good bless you for info that you give us in these nice informative videos
