Care is Primary: Practical Tips for Everyday Practice

🎧 New Episode Alert: Diabetes Canada Kidney Guidelines Update 2025: Going beyond eGFR and ACEi/ARBs

Are you the 1 in 3? In this compelling new episode, hosts Dr. Akshay Jain and Dr. James Kim sit down with world-renowned nephrologist Dr. Navdeep Tangri—creator of the Kidney Failure Risk Equation (KFRE) and key contributor to the 2025 Diabetes Canada guidelines—to discuss how frontline care teams can rewrite the story of diabetic kidney disease.

Is eGFR giving you the full picture? How often should you be checking UACR? And when “normal” results mask progressive damage, how can you intervene before it's irreversible?

From early pharmacologic action and practical prescribing tips to referral timing and risk-based decision-making, this conversation brings the new DKD guidelines to life—with insights you can bring back to the clinic.

Tune in for a lively, practical discussion that cuts through the noise.
