Electrolyte disorders may seem routine on paper, but in the emergency setting, they can rapidly escalate into life-threatening crises. From severe hyponatremia causing seizures to life-threatening hyperkalemia precipitating cardiac arrest, timely recognition and precise management can make the difference between recovery and catastrophe. 

In this high-impact session, Dr. Nikhil Bhasin, Consultant Nephrologist, takes us through the spectrum of electrolyte emergencies, highlighting red-flag signs, diagnostic pitfalls, and rapid interventions every clinician must master. With real-world case scenarios and practical pearls, Dr. Bhasin will translate complex nephrology insights into actionable strategies for physicians across specialties.

Dialysis is a form of renal replacement therapy that supplements kidney function by removing excess water, solutes, and toxins from the blood. It is essential for managing acute kidney injury (AKI) or chronic kidney disease (CKD) and can serve as a temporary solution until a transplant is possible or as a lifelong treatment. With approximately 2.5 million people worldwide on chronic renal replacement therapy, understanding the dynamics of hemodialysis, peritoneal dialysis, and continuous renal replacement therapy is crucial. Join us in this session with Dr. Nikhil Bhasin as we explore these methods and emphasize the importance of preparing patients and caregivers for effective long-term management and reducing complications.

Overview of Dialysis: A Must Know For All Physicians

Diabetic Nephropathy is a leading cause of mortality and morbidity in patients with diabetes. This complication is a reflection of a complex pathophysiology in which susceptibility to end-stage renal disease and its progression are determined by a multitude of genetic and environmental factors. Patients with microalbuminuria and diabetic retinopathy who have had type 1 diabetes for ten years or longer, as well as those with type 1 or type 2 diabetes who have macroalbuminuria and no other known cause of proteinuria, should be evaluated for this morbid condition. In this session, top nephrologist, Dr. Nikhil Bhasin will take us through the basic clinical approach to a patient with Diabetic Nephropathy.

Anemia remains one of the most impactful complications of chronic kidney disease, affecting quality of life, cardiovascular risk, and overall outcomes. The **2026 updates from Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO)** bring important changes to screening thresholds, iron therapy strategies, use of erythropoiesis-stimulating agents, and emerging treatments.

This session will break down the key recommendations from the latest KDIGO guidance into practical steps for clinicians managing CKD patients. Expect a clear review of when to investigate anemia, how to individualize iron and ESA therapy, safety considerations, and integrating new evidence into real-world practice—helping clinicians deliver safer, more effective anemia care in CKD.
