John Erbey from Roivios highlights an often overlooked organ: the kidneys. During cardiac surgery, if they fail to sustain a stable internal environment, this can lead to a higher risk of other organs failing.
"If you keep the kidney alive, the patient can thrive," John shared to Dame Medarski during their conversation. This is Roivios' mission - to create the pacemaker for the kidneys and ensure more surgeries go without further complications.
