Join us on 9/10/24 at 1:00 pm CT for "Multiple Breath Washout in Modern CF Care"! The goal of this presentation is to provide the audience with an overview of MBW in context of current methodology, standards and role in CF clinical research. Discuss outcome measures derived from the MBW test, and their potential utility. Explore how and why MBW has (re)gained popularity in modern CF care. Discuss the considerations and challenges of transitioning MBW/LCI from a research tool into routine clinical care. This webinar is FREE for AARC Members!

Understanding, assessing & treating immune, endothelial, hemostasis dysfunctions in bacterial sepsis: review aimed to provide comprehensive analysis of 🧫 pathophysiological mechanisms of (intricate) interplay between immune cells/endothelium/hemostasis, critical in regulating host response to infection 🩺 clinical aspects of endothelial/hemostatic disturbances induced by immune dysfunction 🛌 assessing endothelial, haemostasis, immune system at bedside 🎯 therapeutic targets & current evidence for specific interventions targeting dysregulated host response A disturbed interplay may result in sepsis-induced immune dysregulation, endothelial dysfunction, and coagulopathy, which could explain why localised source of infection can lead to complications as #ARDS, altered consciousness, shock, #AKI, MOF. Understanding these mechanisms crucial for developing effective tailored treatments targeting immune, coagulation, and endothelial dysfunctions, potentially improving clinical outcomes.
