2024 WCIRDC | Pre-Congress Breakfast CME Symposium
Thursday, December 12, 2024 | 7:00 AM - 8:00 AM PST
Activity Description:
Join us at CKM Dialogues LIVE and delve into the cutting-edge world of Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) Syndrome management. This dynamic, evidence-driven CME activity sheds light on the latest strategies for tackling CKM syndrome—a complex condition at the intersection of heart failure, chronic kidney disease, and type 2 diabetes. While individual guidelines exist for each disease, comprehensive guidance on managing their overlap is limited. CKM Dialogues LIVE brings together a multidisciplinary team of experts to bridge this gap with real-world insights and discussions on emerging therapies.
In this 60-minute interactive session, Therapeutic Strategies for Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic Syndrome: Addressing the Interconnected Triad of Heart Failure, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Diabetes, you’ll explore the metabolic mechanisms driving CKM syndrome and examine current and novel treatments. Held during the prestigious 22nd World Congress on Insulin Resistance, Diabetes & Cardiovascular Disease, this CME breakfast symposium empowers learners to rethink treatment approaches and tailor therapies for the best patient outcomes. Don’t miss this opportunity to advance your expertise in CKM syndrome with expert-led, practical, and concise content!
Earn up to 1.0 ACCME/ABIM MOC/EBAC/AAPA/ANCC/APE/CDR credit/contact hour.

This activity is intended for primary care physicians and other members of the multidisciplinary, interprofessional healthcare team in the U.S who care for patients with cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome.
After completing this activity, the participant should be better able to:
- Describe the complex interplay between CKD, HF, and T2D in the context of cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome.
- Analyze the epidemiological trends and pathophysiological mechanisms underlying the interconnectedness of HF, CKD, and T2D, and their implications for patient prognosis and quality of life.
- Evaluate the current evidence base supporting emerging therapeutic strategies, including sodium-glucose cotransporter 2 (SGLT2) inhibitors and aldosterone synthase inhibitors (ASIs), for managing cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome, with a focus on their potential to mitigate morbidity and mortality.
- Formulate evidence-based treatment plans for patients with cardiovascular-kidney-metabolic syndrome that consider the complex interactions between HF, CKD, and T2D to enhance patient quality of life
