Outstanding items
  • OPTEpro fixes should be on ukrdc live later this week.
  • Retha is currently clarifying the NHSEngland requirements before kicking off the new process. They may require 5years of historical data to start with before the ongoing data is sent regularly.
  • James is absent so not sure on progress with ukrdc tracing.
  • George is still waiting for a response from renalware on the ODS000 issue, spaces in NHS number for Barts and some test files with covid19 reporting in it. This may because Tim needs to be onsite to make the changes. George will chase.
  • Andrew has published some pages detailing RaDaR dependencies and current versions as part of the library warning fixes and upgrades.
  • PV-schema changes for covid-19 should be on ukrdc-live later this week. James will create some test PV files for Leicester to test the PV reporting of covid...
  • George has completed the AKI lablist updates for RAG reporting. 
  • George is currently awaiting a response from Fiona about the dosage reporting and syncing issues for RDA files to RaDaR. How should the site return this in the RDA files correctly and what should happen when syncing to RaDaR to ensure the medications correctly display and don't just return a 500 error.
  • George hasn't progressed the rrtstatus derivation in pv-extract.
  • James is continuing to improve the covid19 reporting process code and aiming to get better automation. The output reports themselves are moving to fortnightly but collection will remain weekly.
 AKI George Swinnertonwill progress this in the absence of James.
Covid19Tim Whitlock (Deactivated)We will shortly be creating a cohort of all patients known to the UKRR for linking to HES and IGNARC records for more in depth analysis of covid19 patients from the renal community. The ignarc linking will probably use https://www.openpseudonymiser.org/Default.aspx for pseudoanoymous linking.

SSG are looking to upgrade tomcat to 8.5 and java to 8. Redhat 6 only supports tomcat 7 and even upgrading to RedHat 7 we are limited to an early version of 8. Redhat would like us to use Jboss Webserver (JWS) which supports tomcat up to version 9 but is not part of our current Redhat subscription would mean extra cost for us. The only viable way we could support his in the short term given the impending PKB would be to use a source code version. JAVA 8 support is present on redhat 6 so shouldn't be an issue. If we are going to run patientview for the long term we should investigate JWS ($1500 per year).

Tim will let pavlo at SSG know.
