Summary
This study looks at whether training general practitioners to better monitor and manage kidney health can slow the loss of kidney function in people with type 2 diabetes. About 360 patients aged 50 and older with early kidney problems will take part. Doctors in the intervention group will receive training and report on patient progress every 3 months for 2 years, while a control group continues usual care.
