Screen, Initiate, Protect (SIP) Campaign
A campaign that encourages regular screening for patients at risk of CKD and initiation of guideline-directed therapy such as Empagliflozin (Jardiance) to protect their kidneys early
Screen
CKD elevates the risk of CVD mortality when uACR>30 and/or eGFR<60
Initiate
SGLT2i is recommended as 1st line therapy in CKD according to 2024 KDIGO Guidelines
Protect
Empagliflozin (Jardiance) reduced the risk of kidney disease progression or CV death by 28% across the spectrum of uACR & eGFR
