Dear Colleagues I'd be grateful for any advice concerning signing off the information governance side for a proposed CKD database run by the renal teams. The proposal is to hoover up all EGFR tests (and possibly other blood tests such as FBC) on a population previously identified from the lab database as having low eGFR. Patient consent is not proposed. I am particularly concerned because as it now stands this will be irrespective of whether those results originate from private/nhs/occupational requests, two different hospital Trusts, a community Trust, a mental health Trust etc etc. Patient consent is not proposed. If anyone's had to go through this (since IG became such a can of worms) please let me know how/who had to sign it off.
