Candidate list
Criteria met, step not taken
What the rules found
- 9patientsTwo eGFR values between 30 and 59, more than 90 days apart, no chronic kidney disease in the chartThe criterion for stage 3 is two qualifying values, not one.Confirm the second value and the interval before coding
- 6patientsThree or more antihypertensives and repeated hypokalaemia, no aldosterone-to-renin ratioGuidelines name this constellation as an indication to screen for primary aldosteronism.
- 4patientsLDL above 190 mg/dl on two reports, no assessment for familial hypercholesterolaemiaThe Dutch Lipid Clinic Network score needs the LDL course, the medication, the age and the family history, all of which are in the chart.
- 12patientsAge, AST, ALT and platelets all present, FIB-4 never calculatedThe score needs no new test.
What this list is not
- It is not a diagnosisEvery line says which criterion the record meets, not what the patient has.
- It is not a predictionNo model is guessing. The rules are the ones the guidelines state.
- Nothing left the practiceThe charts were read where they are.
Every chart the practice has connected was checked against four documented criteria. A patient appears here only when the data behind the criterion is already in her record.
