Dialyzing Wisely: Improving the performance and delivery of acute dialysis in Alberta

10 Jun 2026

12:00pm ET - 1:00pm ET

Acute renal replacement therapy (RRT) can be life-saving for critically ill patients, yet evidence shows that initiating therapy too early can cause harm and consume resources without improving outcomes. Dialyzing Wisely is a provincial quality-improvement initiative designed to standardize evidence-based timing of acute RRT initiation and enhance the performance of dialysis delivery across Alberta’s intensive care units.

Join Choosing Wisely Talks on June 10 at 12 p.m. ET to learn about improvements in RRT performance metrics, key challenges, and lessons learned about the value of early access to individualized data to drive engagement and practice reflection.
