Great to have @SammyG come today to talk at @YaleNephrology conference about Nephro palliative care and the conservative kidney care she provides @BrighamWomens @DanaFarber. A model for all of us. Such a great talk that I forgot to take a pic!

Patients with ESKD access hospice care only about half as often as patients in the general Medicare population. This study introduces a Concurrent Hospice and Dialysis Program that improves hospice access by offering palliative dialysis with hospice care bit.ly/j2022010064

When my mother asks how residency is going at least I can tell her my actions went viral on Twitter. So glad @SterlingPharmD I made your day! #residency
Sterling C. Torian@sterlingtorian

To the resident who ended the phone call about a drug dosing question with “Ok love you bye” and immediately messaged me sorry in embarrassment — I hope you know that you absolutely made my day, I cannot stop laughing about it, & I understand your sleep deprivation #residency

COVID restrictions should not be viewed as only beneficial. In this study, nursing home residents without personal contact with family/friends had a 35% greater excess mortality early in the COVID-19 pandemic relative to residents who had personal contact. jamda.com/article/S1525-…

This paper by Susan Wong and colleagues sparkles! As does the terrific accompanying editorial by Drs. Liu and Tamura. Best dataviz I have seen in quite some time! @UWMedicine @UWNephrology @KidneyResInst @SeaDenCOIN @StanfordNeph @kidneycoalition @nwkidney
JAMA Network Open@JAMANetworkOpen

Systematic review of 41 studies (5102 patients) showed many patients who don't pursue maintenance dialysis survived several years with sustained quality of life. Consistent approaches to the study of outcomes are needed to enhance generalizability. ja.ma/3q3HABm
