Subject: iLAB (APEX) sites and AKI 'null' results.
All iLAB (APEX) sites/users:
As detailed in the 'AKI Warning Algorithm Best Practice Guidance' document, null results (AKI NA and AKI 0) should not be reported.
The issue with iLAB is that a test can either be suppressed, or unsuppressed, but core functionality doesn't allow a test to be either, depending on result value.
I'm working with CSC to test a routine that has the potential to suppress a result based on its value (i.e. If AKI EQ NA or AKI EQ 0 then suppress, else leave unsuppressed) - but there are some teething issues, and I do not want to compromise any potential go-live date here. We've experienced more than our fair share of delays due to inept decision making and issues with CSC's AKI module.
What are other iLAB sites doing regarding these 'null' results?
