MyRenalCare 

A web-app used by both kidney disease (renal) patients and clinicians.

...

The partnership between MyRenalCare and PKB provides both patients and their clinicians automatic access to the patient’s renal blood results in MyRenalCare. Specifically, the patient’s LOINC mapped laboratory results e.g. typically (typically those sent from the UK Renal Registry in the into a patient’s PKB record) will be pulled into, and made accessible, on the patient’s MyRenalCare record. 

For patients this allows them to access their renal blood results automatically on MyRenalCare without having to wait to see their clinician giving them greater control.

For clinicians this reduces the need to log-into several online systems making them more efficient.

For NHS Trusts it reduces the number of system connections required reducing costs and simplifies implementation of MyRenalCare.

How to connect MyRenalCare with PKB

Upon logging in to MyRenalCare, patients will have the option to connect their Patients Know Best (PKB) record with their MyRenalCare record.  This means that the LOINC mapped lab results in their PKB record will be pulled into their MyRenalCare record.  

...

Once the patient has registered with PKB they must then return to MyRenalCare and login.  Then they need to go to "Account Settings" to connect their PKB and MyRenalCare accounts.

...

Blood results that have been LOINC mapped will be pulled from PKB into the patient’s MyRenalCare record immediately after the two records have been successfully linked, and will be updated 4 times a day thereafter.

This is what the blood results look like in PKB:
