The KQuIP/UK Renal Registry (UKRR) East Midlands Regional day was held at IGEM House, 28 High Street, Kegworth, DE74 2DA on the 12th September 2017. The day brought together the East Midlands renal community, including a broad range of medical, multi-disciplinary colleagues and patients to consider and discuss data provided by the UK Renal Registry, Public Health England and NHSBT.
The day, led by Simon Roe, Clinical Lead, Nottingham University Hospitals and Suzanne Horobin, Head of Clinical Network – Cardiovascular, East Midlands Clinical Networks in partnership with the KQuIP team, was an opportunity to present the local and regional information on AKI, CKD and transplantation for the clinical network to consider. The event introduced KQuIP, with interactive sessions for delegates to participate in breakout sessions which showcased the three National KQuIP Projects.
