This guideline covers diagnosing and managing hypertension (high blood pressure), including pre-eclampsia, during pregnancy, labour and birth. It also includes advice for women with hypertension who wish to conceive and women who have had a pregnancy complicated by hypertension. It aims to improve care during pregnancy, labour and birth for women and their babies.
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 diabetes, who are currently treated with an ARB or an ACE inhibitor. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM247
Kidney conditions: CKD and renin–angiotensin system antagonists (IND130)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients on the chronic kidney disease (CKD) register who have hypertension and proteinuria and who are currently being treated with an angiotensin-receptor blocker or an angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitor. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM84
This indicator covers the percentage of patients on the CKD register and currently treated with an ARB or an ACE inhibitor who are also currently treated with an SGLT2 inhibitor if they have either: no type 2 diabetes and a urine ACR of 22.6 mg/mmol or more, or type 2 diabetes and a urine ACR 3 mg/mmol or more. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM246

Evidence-based recommendations on targeted-release budesonide (Kinpeygo) for treating primary immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy in adults.
NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on StoneChecker for kidney stone evaluation .
Kidney conditions: CKD and lipid lowering therapies (IND231)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with CKD, on the register, who are currently treated with a lipid-lowering therapy. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM213
Implanting a baroreceptor stimulation device for resistant hypertension
In development [GID-IP1180] Expected publication date: TBC
Percutaneous transluminal renal sympathetic denervation for resistant hypertension (IPG754)
Evidence-based recommendations on percutaneous transluminal renal sympathetic denervation for resistant hypertension. This involves inserting a device through the skin (percutaneous) into an artery in the thigh and then into the renal arteries (transluminal). It sends radio or sound waves to destroy the nerves in the renal arteries (sympathetic denervation). The aim is to lower blood pressure.

Difelikefalin for treating pruritus in people having haemodialysis (TA890)
Evidence-based recommendations on difelikefalin (Kapruvia) for pruritus in adults with chronic kidney disease having haemodialysis.
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
Minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolitholapaxy medium (MIP-M) for removing kidney stones (MIB138)
NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolitholapaxy medium (MIP-M) for removing kidney stones .
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.
