Overview

This two part programme will consider our current guideline-directed approach to chronic kidney disease (CKD) and how SGLT-2 inhibitors can be used to maximal effect. Join us for part one on 11 March for a unique case-based discussion, chaired by Prof James Burton (University of Leicester, UK) with 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, on 18 April, will offer a forensic analysis of current practices, revisiting the patient case in reflection of expected guideline updates. In this part, our 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. Mark your calendar for these pivotal sessions and be part of the movement shaping the future of kidney health.

This CME programme is supported by an unrestricted educational grant from AstraZeneca.
