An Expert Approach to Cardio-Renal Protection in CKD

This two part programme considers the current guideline-directed approach to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and how SGLT-2 inhibitors can be used to maximal effect. This case-based discussion is chaired by Prof James Burton (University of Leicester, UK) and includes expert insight from a world-renowned faculty, Prof David Wheeler (University College London, UK), Dr Navdeep Tangri (University of Manitoba, CA), and Prof Carol Pollock (University of Sydney, AUS).

In this dynamic series, our expert panel will unravel the complexities of CKD care in the context of a real-world patient case. Part two offers a forensic analysis of current practices, revisiting the patient case presented in part one, in reflection of recent guideline updates. The panel will provide you with evidence-based strategies for initiating pharmacological therapies that transcend the theoretical and become actionable in everyday practice.

Elevate your understanding, challenge clinical norms, and be at the forefront of CKD care.
