Although we have made significant progress in recognizing that cardio-renal-metabolic diseases and risk factors are connected and need to be treated comprehensively, we still have a lot of work to do to close current gaps.

The Annual CMHC meeting is a great platform to not only keep up with these advances, but also to learn how to translate them directly to patient care.

This year, we are excited to introduce a special track focused on digital health and technology, which will overview digital health interventions and their practical applications.

Our FDA Update and Late Breaking Trials is an excellent summary of key advances and approvals in cardio-renal-metabolic medicine in 2023, and a preview of what’s to come.

The rest of our key tracks will do a deep dive on these topics and provide key pearls for the management of complex cardio-renal-metabolic patients.

Through case presentations, panel discussions, Q & A sessions, and opportunities to directly interact with leading experts, this meeting is invaluable in helping multi-disciplinary clinicians keep abreast of this ever-expanding field. If you are a clinician across disciplines or simply interested in improving care for patients with cardio-renal-metabolic disease, we believe that this in an excellent opportunity for you to learn and share experiences with your colleagues.
