step 16: Reports - monthly RRT summaries
This section prepares reports for monthly MDTs per modality and per renal parameter. The last four months of results and the reason for alerts will appear here as demonstrated. The Alert status (Red firsts, then Orange, then Green) appears on the left-hand column. You will also notice other RED TRIGGERS associated with the patient. When you hover over the patient's name, the reason for this particular trigger will appear. When you click on the NHI, you can go to the patient summary page with a summary of all alerts will show. Each RRT modality is reported separately. Within the RRT modality, anemia, and CKD MBD split. eGFR trends reported as part of Bone/GFR reports. The current treatment (EPO/Iron) is displayed per patient. These lists can be reorganized according to Color Alerts and Filters.
You can filter this Modality report per clinician
** In RR3, acting on a Red Alert can be tracked to ensure appropriate dealing with Alerts
Step 17: reports - how to search for specific events
From time to time, you will need a specific set of data for research, auditing, or clinical reporting reasons. You can use the SEARCH button at the top RIGHT SIDE of your Menu items.
Under the SEARCH button, you can build any combination of results if you know how it's stored/granulated. This is quite difficult since you need to know the actual granulation code used - which will allow you to look for that particular dataset. For example, if you need to know how many Diabetics started dialysis in the past three years, you can find the number and actual NHIs/patients - plus their current modality.
After you find your data set, you can export data to MS Excel, where you can process the data further using all the features in MS Excel.
Like all other patient lists, the data can be filtered/sorted using the columns
The SEARCH feature allows the user to find any combination of clinical events
** In RR3, individual Users can build favorite Searches for common uses
Step 18: reports - finding critical events
This is a convenient feature when you have been away from your unit for weeks or months. You can find CRITICAL EVENTS under REPORTS as the most Right-sided menu item under REPORTS. This list can be sorted/filtered as per the associated clinician.
REPORTS --> Critical Events
After you click on CRITICAL EVENTS, you can select the date range at the LEFT-hand side of the screen. The software developer can change the events you are interested in:
Critical events include:
1. Patient deaths
2. Dialysis Access changes
3. Modality changes
4. Access complications
Under REPORTS you can find CRITICAL EVENTS to the top right side of the screen
** in RR3 users can set their own preferred list of Critical Events for their DHB
** in RR3 Critical Event rates will be calculated as Events per RRT time
Step 19 - reports - your personal caseload
Each patient is associated with a Clinician. The CaseLoad shows patient per Clinician. By clicking on CaseLoad at the top of the LANDING page, the patient list will appear for the clinician. The Clinician can be changed at the top left corner.
Whilst on the CaseLoad page, you can re-organize the patient list using several filters and sorting mechanisms. Lists can be sorted using location, modality, or ethnicity. You can also Sort the patient list as per any of the top menu items, like name, eGFR, Age, and Gender.
Return to the Home Page by clicking on the RenalReality icon at the Top right of your screen. This applies to all screens you might be on.
CaseLoad can be selected using the staff name and then sorted per location / modality.
** in RR3 CaseLoads and WorkList can be used to generate Bulk Event entries
