Collegiality and Chronic Kidney Disease


Listen Later

Comprehensively examine chronic kidney disease (CKD), exploring its global prevalence, associated complications (including cardiovascular disease, anaemia, and bone disorders), and treatment strategies. Several articles emphasise the importance of early detection and collaborative care between primary care physicians and nephrologists to improve patient outcomes. Specific treatments like SGLT2 inhibitors are highlighted for their efficacy in slowing CKD progression. Finally, the increasing global burden of CKD, particularly in under-resourced settings, is discussed, along with the need for increased awareness and improved access to care.
