CKD Project – By EASD-PCDE Study Group
The EASD-PCDE Study Group decided to adopt a European study. A Spanish protocol was chosen about the prevalence of chronic kidney disease in type diabetic individuals in primary care (CKD prevalence study). PCDE initiated a collaboration with RedGedaps (Spanish organisation for the study of diabetes) to work on this project. PCDE and RedGedaps will appoint country P.I.’s to work as researchers on the project. The Study group is planning a two day research meeting in September to work on this study. Updates about this project will follow. PCDE Secretariat: M +31 (0) 6 48546892 [email protected] www.pcdeurope.org
