On this episode of the Diabetes Update 2022 podcast series, we welcome Dr Peter Lin, a family physician, and Director of Primary Care Initiatives at the Canadian Heart Research Group. Also joining us is Dr James Kim, a general practitioner and steering committee member of the Diabetes Canada Clinical Practice Guideline.
A safe and proper insulin injection technique is globally recommended to improve blood glucose control. Sadly, most patients receive minimal training in injection techniques. In this episode, our guests discuss what patients need to know about effective and safe injection technique, the impact of needle size and angle of insertion, poor site rotation, advice regarding needles reuse, and resultant impact on patient HbA1c levels. Although the drug is important, the proper delivery of the drug is equally important.
This program was made possible through funding from Becton Dickinson.

In this episode of the Diabetes Update 2022 podcast series, we are pleased to welcome Dr Stavroula Christopoulos, endocrinologist and assistant professor at McGill University’s department of Medicine, and Dr Normand Proulx who is a physician specializing in Nephrology.
What is cardiorenal syndrome and how common is it in everyday practice? Using a case presentation, our guests discuss practical strategies for improving quality of life while protecting the heart and kidneys, along with evidence and recommendations for adding an SGLT2i in these patients and how to initiate them. As well, what other considerations need to be taken with regards to A1C, eGFR and concomitant use with other medications?

On this episode of the Diabetes Update 2022 podcast series titled ‘What are we missing in patients with CKD and T2D?’, we are pleased to welcome Dr. Alice Cheng, an endocrinologist, and Associate Professor in the Department of Medicine at the University of Toronto. She is accompanied by Dr Phil McFarlane, clinical investigator in the Division of Nephrology at St. Michael’s Hospital in Toronto, and an Assistant Professor at the University of Toronto.
In this conversation, our guests discuss what is meant by chronic kidney disease in diabetes, diagnostic methods, and the four pillars of CKD management indicated by the Diabetes Canada Guidelines. The guests also explore the results and efficacy of Finerenone, a new class three generation aldosterone agonist in improving and preventing CKD outcomes in patients with a broad range of kidney function, considering the FIGARO and FIDELIO trials. Finally, the guests discuss the use of SGLT2is with or without finerenone, and potential additional cardiorenal protective benefits obtained from both drugs.
