Transforming Kidney Care: Advances in CKD Management and Renoprotection in Diabetes

Description

Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) and diabetic kidney disease continue to pose significant clinical challenges across East Africa. Recent advances in pharmacotherapy have introduced new opportunities to slow disease progression and improve patient outcomes. This webinar, organized in recognition of World Kidney Day 2026, will explore the evolving landscape of renal protection in CKD and diabetes management. Expert speakers will discuss the clinical evidence, mechanisms of action, and practical application of Cilnidipine in CKD care, as well as the renoprotective benefits of SGLT2 inhibitors beyond glucose control. The session will also highlight findings from major clinical trials and provide practical guidance on patient selection, therapy initiation, titration, monitoring, and adverse event management, enabling clinicians to confidently implement evidence-based care in their daily practice.
