Dr. Paul Palevsky shares his #CJASN perspective on the results of the Intravenous Amino Acid Therapy for Kidney Protection in Cardiac Surgery (PROTECTION) trial bit.ly/CJASN0678 #ASNCJASN

Dr Taler’s approach to resistant HTN. Evaluate for pseudoresistance, always consider clues for secondary HTN and selectively test, ALWAYS check aldo/renin possibly during initial visit ( if no MRA or amiloride), Use longer acting meds, add SGLT if CKD or DM, MRA of course, then other meds depending
