CKD is a major public health issue associated with significant morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. Early detection is vital given that more than 6 million Australian adults are at risk of CKD but public awareness of this devastating disease is low.¹ Appropriate management can reduce deterioration in kidney function by up to 50%,² and at the centre of best-practice management is primary care. Presented by GP Dr Kean-Seng Lim, and nephrologist Prof Eugenia Pedagogos, this advanced course will take you through the latest Australian and international recommendations for the management of CKD, including its early diagnosis and treatment.
