🧵regarding the introducer sheath commonly known as a 'Cordis' catheter. We'll go over what it was originally designed for and why it ended up being adopted by other specialties for entirely different reasons. Also we'll look at its accessories and see what's inside one. (1/ )

🎶🎶sympathomimetic intoxication cast is up! 🤬 patients may be vasoconstricted & hypovolemic (2/2 insensible losses), so can require a seemingly paradoxical combo of fluid + vasodilators 🤬 beware of patients with *numerous* active problems 2/2 acute & chronic complications

EXTRIP's lithium criteria were externally validated and compared to recently suggested Paris Criteria. Bottom line: "EXTRIP criteria outperforms the Paris criteria at identifying potentially ill patients who might benefit from haemodialysis."
