Disaster Nephrology: Kidney Care During Crises

It’s Episode 14 of The Nephron Segment! Join us as we chat with Dr. Mehmet Sukru Sever (https://ecim2024.org/mehmet-sukru-sever/) and Dr. Rasha Rashan (https://medicine.duke.edu/profile/rasha-raslan) and discuss disaster nephrology and kidney care during crises. To summarize Dr. Sever tells us "disasters are inevitable. And All countries around the globe are at risk of disasters, either natural or man made." We discuss what we might learn from prior disasters, what do expect in the future, and what we should do, as a nephrology community, to prepare for the worst.
