Capillary Refill Time (CRT)

Описание: In this episode, Dr. Sergio Zanotti discusses the assessment of peripheral perfusion as a tool to guide treatment in septic shock. Specifically, he dives into Capillary Refill Time. He is joined by Dr. Eduardo Kattan, a critical care and anesthesia physician. Dr. Kattan is an Assistant Professor at the Pontificia Catholic University of Chile, where he also serves as Adult Critical Care Program Director and Director of Research and Academics in the Department of Critical Care Medicine. A prolific investigator, he focuses his research on septic shock and medical education. Dr. Rattan is the Co-Principal Investigator of the recently published ANDROMEDA-SHOCK 2 clinical trial.
