==Guideline==
*'''A Rise >100 mmol from baseline over 24 hours'''
* a patient is '''not''' on chronic hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
* a patient is '''not''' on chronic hemodialysis or peritoneal dialysis
* I don't think that just having a creatinine of >250 should automatically mean ARI.  This could be the patient's baseline and therefore is a chronic issue.  My opinion is to only use the rule of >100 mmol over baseline over 24 hours for '''acute''' renal insufficiency (without dialysis), or use ATN  if this is documented.  --[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 07:13, 2014 October 8 (CDT)
* If the prior Creatinine level is unknown use > 250 as a guideline to code ARI.
** Are we to change what we have being doing for over 10 years ?--[[User:PStein|PStein]] 09:54, 2014 October 15 (CDT)
* check what the pts baseline ''' per doctors note''' creatinine was prior to admission. If creatinine was > or equal to 250 last admission code as ARI if the present creatinine was 350 or more.
** I am just putting my opinion here, if any changes are done they will have to go through the task group first.--[[User:LKolesar|LKolesar]] 11:28, 2014 October 15 (CDT)

{{Data Integrity Check List}}
There are a number of coding rules related to renal diagnoses, centralized info about them is in [[Renal Coding Considerations]].  
 
** I always check what the pts baseline creatinine was prior to admission if the pt had chronic renal insuffiency and creatinine was 250 last admission I will code as mod CRI if the present creatinine was say 350 I will code acute RI in admits and CRI in comorbids If the creat was the same as last admission  say 250 and pt has CRI I only code in comorbids because it is not acute.
