Fully agree @AherneMairead. CKD care needs a multidisciplinary approach and nutrition is a key component @trust_indi @CKJsocial @IrishKidneyAs @worldkidneyday.
@austingstack @CKJsocial @IrishKidneyAs @worldkidneyday @UL @MedicineAtUL @IrishNephSoc @HSEMidWest @noca_irl @DamianFog When a patient with CKD is elderly &malnourished dietary approach needs to balance kidney-friendly restrictions with adequate nutrition to prevent further decline - full nutritional assessment is essential. Unfortunately not enough community or acute dietitians to support.

Very grateful to @hrbireland ๐for supporting our research into kidney disease @UL and @HSEMidWest. Huge progress from a fabulous research team and collaborators @MedicineATUL @austingstack @DjmSexton @DamianFog @galvin_rose @MeeraTandan @IrishKidneyAs @HSEMidWest.
Kidney disease often progresses without symptoms. Professor Austin Stack @austingstack, with HRB support, is using real-world data in Ireland to spot trends and identify those at risk early. A proactive step in protecting health and shaping future care.
