SLIDE 25 Issues to come back to
- Algorithm not fool proof.
– Identification of baseline – Catch all disclaimers so as to not to introduce complacency – Dialysis patients
- Lots of AKI 1
- GP workflow not based around ICE
- NHS Mail issues
- 24/7 cover
- Granularity in the AKI lists.
- ADT Links required
