Kidneys Can't Wait

The latest ICA consensus recommendations eliminate a serum creatinine (SCr) threshold for the diagnosis of HRS-1.1
The application of these recommendations enabled:
• Earlier treatment by approximately 4 days2
• Initiation of treatment when SCr levels were, on average, approximately 1 mg/dL lower2
• Treatment before a further ≥1.5-fold increase in SCr (in 47% of patients)2
