Conversations in Nephrology: 4 new PCP focussed KDIGO Podcasts

Published on 26 September 2023.

CKD is underdiagnosed and undertreated in the community1 and is often a silent component in multi-morbid patients. Early identification, risk stratification, and treatment can reduce the morbidity and mortality rates from CKD and its related complications, such as CVD 2

In recognition of the key role family doctors play in early CKD identification and intervention in the primary care setting, KDIGO have produced a series of 4 short podcast discussions between PCPs (Dr. Peter Lin) and Nephrologists. 

Please listen and share with your peers.
