What the engine reports

Detected clinical pattern

Urgent Red Flag — Priority Safety Review

A safety rule requires urgent clinician review. Safety findings precede any classification.

  • Chronicity: Chronicity unconfirmed
  • CGA: Indicative G3bA? (not a classification)
  • Pattern: Possible obstructive uropathy

Clinical summary

Priority safety finding: possible obstructive uropathy. Physician adjudication required.

Why this pattern was identified

  • Estimated GFR. 32 mL/min/1.73 m² (externally reported), category G3b (30–44).

Calculations

eGFR (externally reported)
32 mL/min/1.73 m²

Patterns for physician adjudication

Evidence shown, not scored: pattern weights are not clinically validated.

Possible obstructive uropathy pattern

Supporting

  • Reduced kidney function (eGFR 32)
  • Hydronephrosis
  • Urinary retention

Contradicting or missing

  • Imaging and bladder assessment not yet reviewed by a physician

Recommended next steps

For physician consideration. Urgent review always comes first.

  1. 1Prompt clinician-directed imaging and urologic evaluation for possible obstruction.
  2. 2Specialist kidney-care referral per triggered criterion: Urgent safety pattern present.KDIGO 2024 referral criteria.

Missing information

  • UACR (required for the A category, risk assessment and a complete classification).

Why it matters

The result is placed in context so the physician can see what is established, what is provisional and what is missing.

SAFE-OBS-001Possible obstructive uropathy

Inputs: eGFR 32 · hydronephrosis · urinary retention

urgent_red_flag: possible obstructive uropathy

DET-001Kidney abnormality detected

Inputs: eGFR 32 (<60)

kidney_abnormality_detected: determine chronicity and evaluate acute causes before confirming CKD

CHR-003Single abnormal result does not confirm CKD

Inputs: abnormality without dated evidence of ≥3 months

kidney_abnormality_unconfirmed: CKD is not confirmed

REF-001Nephrology referral triggers

Inputs: Urgent safety pattern present

Specialist kidney care referral indicated or to be considered per the triggered criterion

Evidence

  • R1 · KDIGO 2024 Clinical Practice Guideline for the Evaluation and Management of Chronic Kidney Disease. Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO), 2024.

Physician adjudication required. Clinical decision support for physician review. Criteria-based status is not a probability. Findings require physician adjudication and correlation with the complete clinical context. Validation-only release: not for production clinical use.
