Overview & Background

Overview The National Advisory Committee for Coronary Heart Disease (NACCHD) commissioned the development of a Cardiac Rehabilitation dataset for NHS Scotland to ensure common information standards for implementation across all clinical settings in which people are undergoing Cardiac Rehabilitation. A Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset Clinical Working Group was established in February 2005 to progress this work, supported by the National Clinical Dataset Development Programme (NCDDP) Support Team based in Information Services Division (ISD).

The Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset will:

Define common data items recommended for collection in a wide variety of clinical settings

Support the exchange of patient information between healthcare providers

Support the consistent recording of patient information throughout NHS Scotland

It is envisaged that the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset will be recorded as a whole within single clinical systems. The dataset contains data items from the national Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) Core and Generic Data Standards, which have previously been developed through the NCDDP and are freely available in Clinical Datasets section of the web based Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. We are now asking for feedback from the wider clinical community in order to ensure that this dataset is fit for purpose and ready for inclusion in the national Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. We invite all interested organisations and individuals to take part in this consultation by completing the attached Consultation Response Form and then returning it to [email protected]. Comments on all or any part of the document are welcome. Some background information on the NCDDP and the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset development can be found below. If you have any further queries, please go to our website or contact [email protected].

Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset The membership of the Cardiac Rehabilitation Working Group is shown in Appendix 1. This group agreed the inclusion of individual data items using the following criteria: 1. Is the data item required by all those involved in the rehabilitation of patients suffering

from coronary heart disease? 2. Will it prevent unnecessary duplication of recording?

Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset Page 4

Page 5: Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset - ISD Scotland Rehabilitation Dataset.pdf · Overview & Background Overview The National Advisory Committee for Coronary Heart Disease (NACCHD) commissioned

Once consultation is compete the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset will be submitted to the NCDDP Programme Board for formal approval as a national standard, and then passed to the eHealth National Clinical Information Steering Group for endorsement. Once approved the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset will be freely and widely available through publication in the Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. Where possible the dataset is UK compatible. It is expected that the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset will be implemented within existing and emerging national clinical information systems and commercially procured national products, as well as being available to commercial developers to ensure the ability of their systems to support national information requirements.

Background to NCDDP The National Clinical Dataset Development Programme (NCDDP) supports clinicians to develop sets of interoperable national datasets to facilitate the implementation of the integrated care records across NHS Scotland. These standards will: • Support direct patient care, by reflecting current best practice guidance • Facilitate effective communication between health care professionals • Improve data quality and support secondary data requirements where possible including

data to support clinical governance • Be freely and widely available through publication in the web based Health & Social Care

Data Dictionary • Incorporate agreed national clinical definitions and implement national terminology • Be UK compatible where possible The programme was established by the Chief Medical Officer in 2003 to support clinicians developing national clinical data standards, initially to support the national priority areas. These standards are an essential element of the Electronic Health Record, a central aim of the National e-Health Strategy. More information can be found on our website.

Generic Data Standards Data standards which are relevant to all patients and are used across specialties, disciplines and settings have already been developed by wider Generic Data Standards clinical working groups and approved as national data standards for NHS Scotland. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset working group identified several generic data items for inclusion in their standards. These data item’s name and definition are listed in this document for information. The detail of these existing standards are published on the web based Health and Social Care Data Dictionary or by contacting [email protected]. We are currently developing the third phase of Generic Data Standards, which is currently being consulted upon. If you would like to participate in the Generic Data Standards Phase 3 consultation, please contact [email protected].

Clinical Terminology The strategic standard for clinical terminology in NHS Scotland is SNOMED-Clinical Terms. This means that clinical information systems will record clinical data using this international standard. It is intended that the NCDDP Support Team will develop recommended SNOMED CT specifications as part of the data standards and datasets it supports. This work will be commenced once SNOMED CT tools become available.

Date Recording It is good record-keeping practice always to identify the date of recording of any clinical information. It is expected that all clinical information systems should include ‘date stamping’ as standard functionality; therefore the Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset does not deal with this issue. In many clinical situations, the date of an event, investigation, etc. is required for clinical purposes and should be visible to the health care professional. This date may not be the same as the date on which the data are entered onto the system. In these instances the system must allow the health care professional to enter whichever date is appropriate. These issues must be addressed during system specification and development. The Cardiac Rehabilitation Dataset does not include standards for recording dates, though the date format for storage and management within a system should conform to the Government Data Standards Catalogue format: CCYY-MM-DD. However, this does not preclude entry or display of data on the user interface using the traditional DD-MM-CCYY format.

4.2 Family History of Coronary Heart Disease Main source of standard: MINAP / SCI-CHD (ACS) Definition: Identifies a family history of premature CHD in a first degree relative by diagnosis Format: 2 characters Codes and values: Codes Values Explanatory Notes 00 No 01 Yes Identifies a family history of premature CHD by diagnosis

(First degree relative - father/brother before 55, mother/sister before 65).

99 Not known Further information: The family history is considered to be significant when a male relative’s first CHD event occurred before the age of 55, or a female relative’s first CHD event occurred before 65. Twin studies have shown that death from CHD is largely influenced by genetic factors with a positive family history being associated with a 75% increase in risk in men, and an 84% increase in women. In men a paternal history of CHD increases their risk to 1.4 and to 1.85 when both parents are affected. Women in whom both parents had CHD are at a still higher risk.

4.5 Fruit and Vegetable Portions per day Definition: The average number of fruit and vegetable portions the patient consumes per day. Format: 2 numeric Codes and values: N/A

Related data items: Oily fish portions per week

Spreading fats and oils type used Salt at the table

Further information: A dietician may not necessarily carry out this assessment. Increasing consumption of fruit and vegetables can significantly reduce the risk of many chronic diseases. It has been estimated that eating at least 5 portions of a variety of fruit and vegetables a day could reduce the risk of deaths from chronic diseases such as heart disease, stroke, and cancer by up to 20%. 5aday.nhs.uk (from WHO recommendations ‘Diet, nutrition and the prevention of chronic diseases’). One portion of fruit is, for example a slice of melon, or 2 satsumas. One portion of vegetables is, for example, 3 tablespoonfuls of cooked carrots or peas or sweetcorn, or 1 cereal bowl of mixed salad. (Ref http://www.5aday.nhs.uk/default.aspx)

4.6 Oily Fish Portions per week Definition: The average number of portions of oily fish the patient eats per week. Format: 2 numeric Codes and values: N/A

Related data items: Fruit and vegetable portions per day

Spreading fats and oils type used Salt at the table Further information: A dietician may not necessarily carry out this assessment. Eating at least 1-2 servings of oily fish per week will help to maintain good levels of the long chain omega-3 fatty acids. (Ref www.eufic.org). Oily fish includes sardines, salmon, pilchard, mackerel, herring, trout or fresh tuna (Ref www.healthyliving.gov.uk/). A portion of oily fish is about 140g ( Ref www.eatwell.gov.uk)

Related data items: Fruit and vegetables portions per day Oily fish portions per week Spreading fats and oils type used Further information: A dietician may not necessarily carry out this assessment. Patients should be encouraged to avoid adding salt to their food at the table / after cooking. This excludes salt substitutes.

4.9 Waist Circumference Definition: Waist circumference measured half way between costal margin and iliac crest (cm). Format: 4 numeric (nnn.n) Codes and values: N/A Further Information: Waist circumference is a convenient and simple measure which is unrelated to height, correlates closely with BMI and the ratio of waist to hip circumference, and is an approximate index of intra-abdominal fat mass and total body fat. Furthermore, changes in waist circumference reflect changes in risk factors for cardiovascular disease. There is an increased risk of metabolic complications for men with a waist circumference >= 102cm and women with a waist circumference >= 88cm. (WHO Diet, nutrition and the prevention of Chronic Diseases’ 2003) This data item may be subject to change following consultation on a generic basis.
