Berkshire Kidney Unit KQUIP data pre-emptive kidney transplantation March 2020
March 2020 transplant status of all dialysis and LCC patients PD HD working up Unsuitable No decision Active Suspended LCC
Narrative: Why? 1/cr plot Beliefs Education focus on dialysis Patient information Investigate before referral Non-standardised approaches Cardiology process delays Investigation/process momentum Lack of documentation
Clinic letter 'I explained that in a young person like herself a staged approach making use of all available modalities over time is usable advisable and I recommended that she starts with peritoneal dialysis.' She was referred as soon as started dialysis and is now transplanted

Why? Failing transplant re-listing delays Refer eGFR <15 Despite predictable 1/cr plot order investigations but not refer Cardiology process delays No-one chasing results Transfers in from other units & not worked up Patient DNAs Medical complexity increasing Waiting times/process delays for Reading patients
Possible solutions Use reciprocal creatinine plot Transplant audits Standardise referral process Clarify investigation process prior to referral Reinvigorate RRT education Patient information Documentation Already done Tx MDT involve Reading; cardiology process reviewed
