Abstract
A Cardiologist’s approach to manage cardio-kidney -metabolic syndrome in primary care. A cardiologist’s approach to managing Cardiovascular-Kidney-Metabolic (CKM) syndrome in primary care focuses on early staging, precise risk calculation, and the aggressive deployment of organ-protective medical therapies. According to the latest comprehensive guidelines, managing CKM syndrome requires a shift from treating isolated risk factors to a coordinated, multi-organ prevention strategy.
