AKI Event held on Thursday 17 September

Dr Stephen Dickinson, SW CN AKI Clinical Lead

Thanked all of those who attended the 3rd AKI learning event.

It was acknowledged that there is still much to be done and as mentioned at the event we would like to develop a SW AKI Forum based on the Wessex model / principles:

  • harmonizing the AKI pathway based on evidence and national guidelines
  • embed best practice
  • improve advice/guidance and referral practices
  • sharing of expertise, manpower and other resources
  • collaborative research/audit
  • a point of accountability

If you are interested in being part of this forum please can you send an expression of interest to Susan Shears [email protected]
