This week on Critical Care Time, Nick & Cyrus discuss the recent article in the Journal of Critical Care titled “Impact of initial jugular vein insertion site selection for central venous catheter placement on hemodialysis catheter complications.” Is this bunk or is this practice changing? Did they select the right population for this study or is the question they asked and answered... maybe not such a great question? We'll cover all this and more during this week's episode! Please take a listen, react, reach out & as always - don't forget to leave a review!

September 08, 2025 57. Venous Congestion, Volume Tolerance and Bedside Assessments
What is the microcirculation? How are terms like volume-status and fluid-responsiveness misleading? Join us as we sit down with Dr. Ross Prager to unpack and de-mystify the concepts of congestion and volume tolerance along with our survey of the tools of the trade as it relates to these terms. On this Critical Care Time episode we really get into the weeds on this stuff and even get theoretical at some points so it's NOT for the faint of heart! However, if you listen to us for the deep dives into physiology and if you want to level-up your ICU patient care, this is the episode for you! Listen, leave us some feedback and drop us a review!
