Improved User interface
We improved and added features to the user interface to improve and expand the user experience across many settings and renal modalities, as summarized below. All features are still the same for all users, though.
- Scrolling through patient and pop-up notes
- Using patient NHI for searches/filters and additions
- Highlighted links to Critical interventions
- Text alerts on Careplans for color-blind users

CarePlan ACTION points
In addition to standard careplans directed at the patient, we added action points directed to renal care workers. So, whilst the patient knows what to do, the care provider can also get guidelines-directed action plans.
- Specific CKD MBD adjusted to renal guidelines
- EPO and iron adjustment for Anaemia management
- Phosphate binders and Vitamin D supplementation
- When to escalate treatment to MDT/Clinician

Notices, Alerts and Links
From the Patient Summary Page, the users can access and edit notifications and reminders about the patient's upcoming plans and recent progress/updates. CarePlans updates are also showing here.
- Using patient associations to build CaseLoads
- Virology and Social Alerts added to Headlines
- Modality changes subject to Dialysis Access entries
- Red alerts numeric indication per RRT modality

Eclair result efficiencies
In preparation for your monthly renal MDT, these reports are updated daily to reflect the disease burden in each modality. Reports are categorized per modality and renal parameter, showing Red Alerts first to allow focused management of CKD in each modality.
- Edited results in Eclair retrospectively updated
- Tracking tables of RenalReality uploads
- Opt-out feature and Eclair Audit trails
- Event dates changed from MM-YY to DD-MM-YY

User CaseLoads and Landings
The Home Page (Landings) lists patients per modality or user preference. From here, the user can filter or sort patients according to different measures that include modality, location, ethnicity, and associated staff member (which becomes the CaseLoad of the clinicians)
- CASELOADS defined by associated staff/users
- Landings as per user profile and preferences
- Filters (Sorting) per modality, location, and ethnicity
- HD/PD scripts expanded and generalized

More ways to enter events
Other than following a menu tree and entering one clinical event at a time, you can now enter events using FORMS. Data that comes in other formats can now be uploaded using File Attachments. You also got more Quicklinks customized to your renal unit requirements.
- Forms, Referrals, and documents in MainMenu
- QuickLinks to Family meetings and Medication lists
- Attaching a document and link to clinical events
- Using preset FORMS to enter sets of clinical data
additional features added in 2022 - released 2.55 November 2022
Data entry Forms
The functionality and features on all forms had been improved to include clearing prefilled data, showing previous authors, and the date/time of entries.
Quick link buttons to access related data from, for example, HD scripts to HD sessions, were also added.
Medication tabs
Full management of medications, from the current list to Stopped / Withheld medications, can now be done in RR2.5.
Up to an active list of 15 drugs can be managed this way. Scripts from these tabs can be exported as an edited active list or create as a Pharmacy script.
Adding results manually
Results from Digital Diabetes tools and manually recorded URR, for example, can soon be added by users. URR will then be stored as data entry for historical access and report building.
Staff management
As your staff list change, you can now manage active vs. inactive staff members. This will impact caseloads and appropriately be reflected in RR2.6
