What do Kidneys have to do with Blood Pressure?

Join us for the first in a series of public health talks brought to you in partnership with the Royal Perth Hospital Research Foundation.

High blood pressure affects millions and is a major risk factor for heart disease, stroke, and kidney failure. What many people are unaware of, is the close relationship between blood pressure and kidney health, and how problems in one can directly impact the other.

Professor Markus Schlaich explains the important role of the kidneys in regulating blood pressure and their essential contribution to cardiovascular wellbeing. Learn common risk factors, early warning signs, and practical steps to better manage blood pressure and protect long-term health.
