This course will be live-streamed on 12 - 14 May 2021
This unique course integrates the understanding of physiology and electrolyte and acid/base disorders that many find confusing.
It features lectures from international physiology and nephrology experts, small group case discussions and workshops to ground participants in the pathophysiology and clinical management of electrolyte and acid/base disorders, hypertension and fluid management.
The course will be live-streamed and include real-time audience-response questions allowing you to pose specific questions to our expert faculty. In addition, we will hold small group case discussions/workshops on Zoom. Links to the video recordings of the presentations will be sent out approximately two weeks after the course and be available to view for four weeks.
Who is this course for?
The course is aimed at trainees in renal medicine, but will also be of interest to other healthcare professionals involved in the management of patients with chronic renal failure.
Accreditation
During the current pandemic, the Royal College of Physicians (RCP UK) are awarding the same number of CPD credits for a live-streamed event as they would for a live event. In previous years, the course has been awarded 18 category 1 (external) CPD credits, and we anticipate this year’s course will be awarded the same number. The RCP have also stated that participants accessing the archived version of an event can record this in their CPD diary using the approval code for up to four weeks after the event. You will receive an Attendance Certificate after the course.
