Using bio-ADM and penKid for optimization of AHF management in daily clinical practice
Acute Heart Failure (AHF) is a leading cause of hospitalization in the elderly population and it is commonly associated with poor outcomes. Early identification of high-risk patients and more reliable parameters to monitor disease progression and its outcomes may allow more effective management and a better outcome for AHF patients.
In this webinar, Prof. Parissis presents different clinical phenotypes of AHF and the role of the kidney function biomarker penKid and the biomarker bio-ADM for endothelial function in selecting and guiding optimal therapeutic interventions. He discusses two clinical cases of AHF using these biomarkers for early risk stratification and evaluation of treatment activities.
Date: Wednesday, September 07, 2022 | 16:00-17:00 CEST
Speaker: Prof. John Parissis MD, PhD, Attikon General Hospital, Head of University Clinic of Emergency Medicine, University of Athens, Greece

Using Proenkephalin as a Novel Biomarker to Estimate GFR
The standard of care to determine kidney function has significant limitations, including late detection of changes in kidney function and the influence of non-renal factors on its results. The biomarker Proenkephalin provides a solution to assess changes in kidney function earlier compared to creatinine.
Prof. Peter Pickkers (Radboud University, Nijmegen) will present the research background alongside a new GFR formula that translates penKid concentrations into an estimated GFR for the routine clinical use initially in adults.
Date: Thursday, April 28, 2022 | 16:30-17:30 CEST
Speaker: Prof. Dr. Peter Pickkers, Radboud University, Nijmegen

Sepsis in the Emergency Department: recognizing high-risk patients with the biomarker Bioactive Adrenomedullin
Recognizing the high risk sepsis patients at the Emergency Department (ED) poses a certain challenge, yet a timely therapeutic intervention is crucial for the patients’ survival. Find out how a novel biomarker of endothelial function bioactive adrenomedullin can support diagnostics and clinical decisions in the ED.
Date: Thursday, February 24, 2022 | 15:00-16:00 CET

Overcoming the limitations of Acute Kidney Injury (AKI) diagnostics in the Emergency Department: the biomarker Proenkephalin for early recognition of AKI
Acute Kidney Injury is a serious complication of multiple severe conditions such as sepsis, yet is difficult to recognize with the current standard of care diagnostics in the patients presented at the ED. The novel functional kidney biomarker Proenkephalin A can bridge the gap in timely diagnostics of AKI in the ED.

Point-of-care Diagnostics in the Emergency Department: Better Patient Management
Near patient diagnostics can greatly improve the time to intervention and the outcomes for the severely sick patients presented at the ED. Learn about the possibilities of near the patient testing of well known and novel biomarkers on the point-of-care platform IB10.
