PROGRAM OVERVIEW
In this evidence-based symposium, the program will blend research and practice tools to increase knowledge of the pathophysiologic relationship between CVD and CKD and provide evidence-based CKD screening for patients with CVD or elevated CV risk. Additionally, case studies and patient scenarios will demonstrate how to create evidence-based guideline-informed treatment plans for the use of novel therapies in patients with CVD, who may also have co-morbid CKD. The program will provide tools to apply this knowledge to practice to pursue a more holistic, patient-centered care model that streamlines communication and encourages shared decision-making.
LEARNING OBJECTIVES:
- Describe the pathophysiologic relationship between CVD and CKD and provide evidence-based CKD screening for patients with CVD or CV risk factors
- Create evidence-based guideline-informed treatment plans for the use of novel CMD therapies in patients with CVD, who may also have comorbid CKD
- Apply a holistic, patient-centric care model that streamlines communication across an MDT and includes the patient’s perspective through SDM to enhance care for patients with CVD and comorbid CKD
TARGET AUDIENCE
This educational activity is designed to meet the needs of general cardiologists and advanced practice providers (APPs) in cardiology, who play a crucial role in cardiovascular (CV) care and see patients at high risk for chronic kidney disease (CKD).
