Advanced Treatment for Diabetes-Related Kidney Disease

New Possibilities. Real Results.

Quick Answer

Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) is a physician-directed therapy offered by the Connecticut Diabetes Center that aims to restore the body's natural insulin signaling to improve kidney function in diabetes-related kidney disease. Unlike traditional treatments that often target stabilization, PIR has demonstrated the potential for improvement. Clinical studies indicate that up to 43% of patients experienced an improvement in their CKD stage, while approximately 50% remained stable. This approach offers a different outcome for patients, potentially helping them avoid or reduce dialysis and enhance their quality of life.

We help people with Chronic Kidney Disease address insulin resistance and other metabolic factors that contribute to declining kidney function.

THE REALITY OF CKD WITH TRADITIONAL TREATMENTS

With traditional management of chronic kidney disease, STABILIZATION (not improvement) is often the goal and considered a successful outcome.

Because CKD is generally progressive, improvement in all stages is relatively uncommon, and many patients continue to experience gradual decline over time.

A DIFFERENT OUTCOME
IS POSSIBLE WITH P.I.R

In contrast, clinical studies of Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) have demonstrated:

  • Up to 43% improvement in CKD stage
  • Approximately 50% remained stable
  • Less than 10% experienced further progression.

These amazing results are based on published clinical research.

PIR Effects on CKD

Kidney Disease

What do the clinical study results for PIR treatment in CKD stages 3A-5 look like?

The clinical studies referenced encompass all stages of Chronic Kidney Disease (CKD) from 3A to 5, providing a comprehensive overview of the treatment's impact across these advanced stages.

WITH TRADITIONAL CKD MANAGEMENT*

Goal is to slow decline. Improvement is rare.

*Based on published data in
moderate-to-advanced CKD.

WITH P.I.R
TREATMENT*

Clinical studies show better outcomes.

*Results from clinical studies of
Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR).

CLINICAL OBSERVATION:

In clinical practice, improvement from stage 4 to stage 3, 2 or 1 has been observed in some patients within 12 months of PIR treatment.

Why does Physiologic Insulin Resensitization (PIR) treatment matter for kidney health?

Stabilization or improvement may help you potentially avoid dialysis or significantly reduce dialysis visits.

Better kidney health can mean more energy for your daily activities. greater independence and a better quality of life.

PIR is a physician-directed therapy designed to help restore your body’s natural insulin signalling.
