Renal Failure
Renal failure is the sudden loss of function which occurs when your kidneys become unable to filter waste from your bloodstream. Kidney failure can be caused by high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, inflammation and infections.

- Failure to appropriately monitor kidney function and blood pressure in patients with chronic renal disease
- Failure to recognise deteriorating renal function
