SAVE THE DATE FOR THESE JOINT CONFERENCES…
SEPT. 27-30, 2012

Dear Colleagues,

As the complexity of critically ill patients has changed over the last decade, the contents of educational meetings need to adjust to address these changes. The six previous PCRRT meetings held every other year have introduced the pediatric Nephrology, ICU, Nursing and Pharmacy communities to the care of children receiving CRRT. As with many therapies and disease processes, advancement in knowledge, experience and therapies have improved outcome but also created more questions.

In response to the increased complexity and novel research efforts in the area of pediatric CRRT, the PCRRT Foundation has decided to enhance the format of these meetings.

The PCRRT Foundation and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Heart Institute and Center for Acute Care Nephrology are pleased to announce that the 1st International Symposium on AKI in Children will be held in conjunction with 7th International Conference on Pediatric Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy, Sept. 27-30, 2012 in Cincinnati, OH. The format will still feature the PCRRT basics course but will move to specific work in organ cross talk, use of all acute modalities in the PICU setting and advances in pediatric AKI clinical and translational research.

Save the date and plan on joining us with this new direction in the care of critically ill children.
