Renal Function Interpretation with Dr Dabasish Banerjee Episode 1 - Potassium
Send us a text
Richard is joined by renal consultant Dr Dabashish Banerjee to break down the interpretation of renal function tests — without the nephrology-induced headache.
In this episode, we explore when renal function tests should be requested, what they actually include, and how to interpret results confidently in clinical practice.
The conversation then focuses on potassium disorders, using real-world cases to unpack hypokalemia and hyperkalemia. We discuss key history points, relevant investigations, red flags not to miss, and when referral.
A practical, case-based episode aimed at clinicians working in primary care, urgent care, and acute settings.
Hope you enjoy the episode
As always massive thank you to Scott
