Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in Primary Care – Evidence‑Based Clinical Update
This Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) in Primary Care course supports experienced clinicians who want to strengthen their understanding of CKD and deliver safe, effective long‑term condition management. Moreover, the session provides a clear, structured and evidence‑based overview, helping delegates recognise CKD pathophysiology, identify key diagnostic markers and apply interventions that improve patient outcomes.
Additionally, delegates explore why CKD develops, gaining insight into underlying mechanisms that influence disease progression. The session highlights essential markers such as eGFR, uACR and blood pressure trends, allowing clinicians to recognise early decline and respond appropriately. Consequently, participants gain stronger clarity on how to interpret results confidently and support personalised renal care.
Throughout the course, delegates review evidence‑based interventions that slow CKD progression. Furthermore, the session emphasises practical strategies, including lifestyle advice, medication optimisation and structured monitoring. Clinicians learn how to ensure appropriate follow‑up, apply national guidance and recognise when referral to secondary care is required. This approach supports safe, consistent and proactive CKD management across primary care.
Case‑based discussion reinforces real‑world decision‑making. As a result, delegates strengthen clinical reasoning, improve pattern recognition and gain confidence applying CKD principles to everyday practice. The session highlights how early identification, timely intervention and clear communication can significantly improve long‑term renal outcomes.
This course blends practical tools with evidence‑based guidance. Therefore, delegates leave with improved confidence, deeper knowledge and a clearer understanding of how to deliver safe, structured CKD care in primary care.
By the end of the session, attendees will be able to:
- Recognise why CKD develops and understand its pathophysiology
- Identify key clinical markers of CKD
- Implement evidence‑based interventions for CKD management
- Ensure appropriate follow‑up and referral
Who Should Attend
Ideal for GPs, Nurses and Allied Healthcare Professionals involved in long‑term condition management and renal care.
