While it is clearly helpful to have research-based guidelines and protocols to draw upon, it is not always easy to access this information particularly at the time when it is needed most, such as on a ward round or in a busy outpatient clinic. These evidence-based guidelines, produced by nationalorganisations (The Renal Association, British Hypertension Society, National Institute for Health and Clinical Excell
