Abstract

Biochemical blood levels are one international renal outcome measure. These quantitative data (such as phosphate levels) reflect, in part, dietary intervention and compliance to medical regimens, for example dialysis prescriptions and phosphate binding medication. The numbers demonstrate intervention efficacy, the cornerstone of evidence-based practice (EBP) (Greenhalgh et al., 2014). However, such data misses opportunities to capture the quality of the whole care provided, something that really matters to patients.
