Perioperative Management of Patients Receiving Renal Replacement Therapy Undergoing Major Cardiac Surgery: A Narrative Review

#BrainDeath, or death as determined by neurologic criteria, can be difficult for families to understand because patients may still have a pulse, warm skin, chest rise with mechanical ventilation, or reflexive movements.
💡 This JAMA Insights article discusses how simple, direct, and precise language may help clinicians communicate that brain death is legal death and reduce confusion during evaluation and determination.

#ResusTEE can help optimize CPR
A recent study in @_Anesthesiology by the @ResusTEEproject collaborative showed interesting results
journals.lww.com/anesthesiol…
In 50% of cardiac arrests, CPR is done too high over the LVOT or Aorta which is associated with lower rates of ROSC & lower ETCO2.
In this TEE done intrarrest, the CPR is not compressing the LV, and instead is compressing the right of the screen which is aorta.
No LV compression = no aortic valve opening = no forward flow = no ROSC.

I don’t think haemodynamics is taught badly because it is complicated.
I think it is taught badly because we teach the variables before we teach the system.
New post on The Dependent Variable.

Honoured to attend and support the joint @EACTAIC and @scahq session at #ECHO2026 in Berlin: “TEE in USA – Different than in Europe?”
Great discussions on education, clinical practice, certification pathways, and the future of echocardiography, including the growing role of AI.
International collaboration continues to strengthen perioperative echocardiography and ultimately improve patient care.
