Preliminary questions [34815]
34817 there is some evidence that end stage renal failure may be a factor in the development or worsening of the condition under consideration.
34818 the veteran had end stage renal failure at some time.
34819 the veteran had end stage renal failure as a consequence of an illness or injury which is identifiable.
34820 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and VEA service for sleep apnoea.
34827 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran had end stage renal failure at the time of the clinical onset of the condition under consideration.
34821 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and VEA service for the clinical onset of sleep apnoea.
34823 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and operational service for the clinical onset of sleep apnoea.
or
34824 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and eligible service for the clinical onset of sleep apnoea.
or
7334 the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred after the end of the veteran's last period of VEA service.
7335 the condition under consideration permanently worsened.
34828 as a consequence of the identified illness or injury, the veteran had end stage renal failure at the time of the clinical worsening of the condition under consideration.
34822 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and VEA service for the clinical worsening of sleep apnoea.
34825 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and operational service for the clinical worsening of sleep apnoea.
or
34826 the veteran has established the causal connection between the end stage renal failure and eligible service for the clinical worsening of sleep apnoea.
Clinical onset and operational service [34823]
34829 the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related to operational service.
Clinical onset and eligible service [34824]
34830 the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related to eligible service.
Clinical worsening and operational service [34825]
34829 the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related to operational service.
34831 the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of operational service to which the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related.
Clinical worsening and eligible service [34826]
34830 the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related to eligible service.
34832 the clinical onset of the condition under consideration occurred prior to that part of eligible service to which the identified illness or injury which caused the end stage renal failure is causally related.
