N2  - - Data regarding the urea reduction ratio (URR) were
available for analysis from 63 renal centres in the
UK.
- Fifty centres provided URR data on more than 90%
of prevalent haemodialysis (HD) patients.
- The proportion of patients in the UK who met the
Renal Association clinical practice guideline for
URR (.65%) increased from 77.7% in 2002 to
88.1% in 2015.
- There was persistent variation observed between
centres, 20 centres attaining the RA clinical practice
guideline in .90% of patients and 36 centres attaining
the guideline in 70?90% of patients.
- Patients over the age of 70 years achieved a higher
median URR (76.0%) compared to younger patients
(,70 years, URR 75.0%). . The overall proportion of prevalent HD patients
with a URR .65% has continued to improve over
time.
- Whilst the majority of UK patients achieved the
target URR there was wide variation between
centres in the percentage of patients achieving the
current guideline target.
