Welcome to the CRRT Online Faculty Center!

Pedro Teixeira, MD
Albuquerque, NM USA

I am an Associate Professor in the Department of Internal Medicine at the University of New Mexico (UNM). I am also the medical co-director of a local Dialysis Clinic Inc. (DCI) hemodialysis unit. I serve as the director of acute dialysis and continuous renal replacement therapy (CRRT) at UNM Hospital and the program director of the Nephrology fellowship. My academic interests lie in all areas of overlap between critical care and nephrology, centering on the realm of acute kidney injury (AKI). I have developed a research program at UNM consisting of over a dozen investigator-initiated research studies and industry-supported multicenter trials focused on diagnostics and therapeutics for AKI, acute RRT, extracorporeal membrane oxygenation, hepatorenal syndrome, COVID-19, acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), and septic shock.
