Raising awareness of AKI in pregnancy

Raising awareness of AKI in pregnancy

The London Renal Strategic Clinical Network (SCN) invites you to a 3-hour educational event on 29 September to increase awareness and skills for acute kidney injury (AKI) in pregnancy. The key output from this meeting will be to determine a London pregnancy AKI pathway for ratification by stakeholders and networks.

This session will provide background on AKI in pregnancy as well as present a (draft) pregnancy AKI pathway for discussion and feedback. Following ratification by stakeholders, the pathway will be used to increase education and understanding on this focus area.
