Do you administer non indicated medications if the family wants to? Same for intubation as far as I’m concerned. No indication for ICU admittance hence no intubation for a 97 yo pt with dementia. My perspective from Italy in a (dying?) public healthcare.

Guidance: Be comfortable with short-term eGFR swings.

Act only on *sustained* changes. Otherwise you are treating biological variability, not disease.

*And always correlate with the clinical picture *
