As per Allan, unless the transplanted kidney was truly working postop (i.e. didn't need dialysis for at least a week or two) then do not code ARF.

{{DiscussTask |I have a patient with GFR 12, but not yet on HD at home. She came in septic, in AKI, which lead to a new start of HD during this admission. I entered CKD stage 5 in comorbs, AKI in admits, but '''it won't allow me to enter "YES" for ARF (APACHE),''' and "4CRF-sevr" under CHRONIC in APACHE. The definitions of chronic and acute renal failure are different for ICD10 and APACHE, so I am confused. What is the correct way of doing the APACHE for this patient? --[[User:Jvelasco|Jvelasco]] 10:34, 2020 May 21 (CDT)}}
