Chronic kidney disease is increasingly complex to manage, but new therapeutic options and updated referral pathways now offer GPs and specialists greater opportunities to slow progression and protect patients from cardiovascular and renal complications.

Join Dr Ivor Katz and Dr Martina Gleeson for an engaging, case based session exploring practical strategies for managing CKD in primary care.

The session will walk through real GP and specialist cases to demonstrate how modern CKD therapies, albuminuria guided risk assessment, and collaborative care models can significantly improve patient outcomes.

This webinar will also outline how the new NSW Adult Nephrology Referral Guidelines, together with statewide eReferrals launching in August 2026, streamline decision making around when to refer and when patients can be safely managed in general practice.

By the end of the session, participants will be better equipped to:

• Initiate and optimise the latest CKD medications

• Recognise the importance of albuminuria via a urine ACR and the KFRE score , in CKD, ESKD and cardiovascular risk

• Coordinate effective GP–specialist shared care plans

• Confidently determine appropriate referral timing based on evidence and guidelines

This practical, interactive update is ideal for GPs, practice nurses and clinicians involved in chronic disease management.
