Such a seemingly simple intervention but big implications for reducing unnecessary spend by just doing ALT rather than full liver function test. Proud one of my brilliant GPs @PuneetChadha1 was involved in this initiative
Fantastic work @Tim_Merchant and @PuneetChadha1 . Our @ViaductCare Stockport General Practice clinicians #QI @GPExcellenceGM . Proud of you all
Clinicians in Stockport are now able to request ALT specifically for statin monitoring, rather than full LFT panel. One of our @ViaductCare doctors Dr Al-Gailani and Cheadle GP @PuneetChadha1 wrote this paper to inform implementation. We are really proud!
This report from Al-Gailani and Chadha highlights that a change to NICE guidance in 2014 may have contributed to a significant rise in statin prescribing 🔗 https://t.co/Qt8c4kyF4y #statins #statin
