Kidney conditions: CKD and blood pressure when ACR 70 or more (IND264)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients on the CKD register and with an albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) of 70 mg/mmol or more, without moderate or severe frailty, in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 125/75 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 130/80 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM248.
Kidney conditions: CKD and blood pressure when ACR less than 70 (IND235)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients on the CKD register and with an albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) of less than 70 mg/mmol, without moderate or severe frailty, in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 135/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 140/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM217

This indicator covers the percentage of patients with diabetes with moderate or severe frailty, on the register, in whom the last IFCC-HbA1c is 75 mmol/mol or less in the preceding 12 months. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM158
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with diabetes without moderate or severe frailty, on the register, in whom the last IFCC-HbA1c is 58 mmol/mol or less in the preceding 12 months.

Diabetes: statins for primary prevention of CVD (T2DM and 10% risk) (IND182)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes and a recorded cardiovascular disease risk assessment score of 10% or more (without moderate or severe frailty), who are currently treated with a statin (unless there is a contraindication or statin therapy is declined). It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM161
Diabetes: statins for primary prevention of CVD (40 years and over) (IND183)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with diabetes aged 40 years and over, with no history of cardiovascular disease and without moderate or severe frailty, who are currently treated with a statin (excluding patients with type 2 diabetes and a cardiovascular disease risk score of less than 10% recorded in the preceding 3 years). It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM162
This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged between 25 and 84 years, with type 2 diabetes, without moderate or severe frailty, not currently treated with a statin, who have had a consultation for a full formal cardiovascular disease risk assessment in the last 3 years. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM160
