Acute Kidney Injury
For Continuous Dialysis Nafamostat Shows Similar Efficacy, Lower Toxicity, Lower Costs vs. Citrate
A commonly-used dialysis anticoagulant in South Korea and Japan may eventually become an option for children in the US who need continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT), a slower form of kidney dialysis that puts less strain on the heart.
A study published March 28, 2022 in Pediatric Nephrology compares nafamostat mesilate to regional citrate anticoagulation (RCA), which is commonly used in the EU and in the US under an Emergency Use Authorization. Click here to read more.

Kidney Transplant
For Kidney Transplantation, Investing in Medication Adherence Program Pays Off
Even if starting a medication adherence program cost $2.5 million to set up and $188,000 a year to maintain, doing so would still reduce the overall costs involved in providing and supporting kidney transplants to teens and young adults by reducing acute rejection rates and their associated costs. And along the way, many people would live longer, healthier, more productive lives with their donated organs. These are some of the findings from a study published Feb. 25, 2022, in the American Journal of Kidney Diseases. The analysis was led by Charles Varnell, MD, MS and David Hooper, MD, MS, at Cincinnati Children’s and Mark Eckman, MD, MS, at the University of Cincinnati. Click here to read more.
