My Father Is 84 Just Had A 5x Bypass Hes

my father is 84 just had a 5x bypass hes been on ventilator for 13 days he has been removed from ventilator 3 times all failed he has phenomena and i suspect sepsis as well even tho we have not been told this, his kidney function is progressively getting worse with a creatin lvl of 2.6 tonight he also had a upper gi bleed that they were able to stop the bleeding
the doctors are more concerned with the phenomena and want to treat it first I believe that they should address both put him on a 24 hr dyalisis because he couldnt handle a normal dyalisis and treat the phenomena
would this be a better approach to get him back to us hes in such a low percentile of getting thru this according to all that i have read
