Rationale and Design of NUDGE-CKD: A Nationwide Randomized Factorial Trial of Electronic Nudges for Increasing Guideline-Directed Medical Therapy in Chronic Kidney Disease From Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD and team: sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

RSV isn’t just a lung issue-it could be a ticking time bomb for your heart! ⏳🫁➡️🫀 New research links acute #RSV infections to higher risks of #strokes & #heartfailure hospitalizations. Read the full study in #JACC: jacc.org/doi/10.1016/j.… #HeartDisease #Virology

#Nudges are behavioral interventions that influence decisions without restricting choices or giving incentives This 2x2 factorial #implementation RCT will test effect of 🇩🇰 e- letter nudges delivered to people w #CKD vs their GPs vs both on #GDMT uptake sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

In Denmark, CVD affects 11% of the population—but with universal healthcare, registry-based research, and bold public health moves, outcomes are improving. Equity is the next frontier. ❤️ Anne Marie Reimer Jensen Caroline Espersen Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD ahajournals.org/doi/full/10.11…

Excited to see my brilliant fellow Kristoffer Grundtvig Skaarup present the NUDGE-CKD trial in the Late-Breaking Clinical Trial presentations at ERA2025 in Vienna. A nationwide 2x2 factorial RCT testing patient- and provider-targeted nudges to increase GDMT uptake in chronic kidney disease.

Congrats Kristoffer Grundtvig Skaarup Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD!!

Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD does it again! At #ERA25, a 🇩🇰Nationwide 2x2 Care-Embedded Implementation Trial with >20,000 pts & >1500 practices. No 🔼 in #RASi or #SGLT2i with electronic, #BehavioralScience letters. Brilliant work by Kristoffer Grundtvig Skaarup, mentored by Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD. 🙏🏾 for including me!

Stellar presentation by Kristoffer Grundtvig Skaarup w superb mentorship from senior author Tor Biering-Sørensen, MD, MSc, MPH, PhD #ERA25 Pragmatic 2x2 factorial #implementation RCT w randomization at GP & pt level E-letters to 1540 GPs & 22617 pts w #CKD did not ⬆️ uptake of #GDMT ahajournals.org/doi/10.1161/CI…

Sending letters to patients and providers to improve CKD drug uptake? ✅ Sensible ✅ Scalable ✅ Grounded in behavioral science But in the NUDGE-CKD RCT? ❌ No meaningful effect Medical Affairs takeaway: Even “obvious” educational interventions must be tested. Behavioral
