Overview & Background
Overview The National Advisory Committee for CHD (NACCHD) commissioned the development of Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards for NHS Scotland in order to ensure a national approach to the collection of clinical and non-clinical data items relating to Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions. The aim is to support the implementation of an electronic integrated health record, and ensure inter-compatibility of national clinical information systems. A Clinical Working Group was established in December 2007 to progress this work, supported by the National Clinical Dataset Programme (NCDDP) Support Team in Information Services (ISD).
The Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards 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 important to emphasise that these are data standards rather than a dataset. This means that the individual data standards included in this document need not all be recorded together in clinical systems but, where it is considered appropriate to record a particular item as part of a person’s care record, it should be recorded in accordance with the nationally agreed standard. The data standards contain data items from Generic Data Standards and other Clinical Datasets, which have previously been developed through the NCDDP and are freely available in the Clinical Datasets section of the web-based Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. Feedback was sought from the wider clinical community in order to ensure that these data standards are fit for purpose. We invited all interested organisations and individuals to take part in the consultation by completing a Consultation Response Form. Comments on all or any part of the document were welcomed.
Some background information on the NCDDP and the Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards development can be found below. If you have any further queries, please go to our website or contact [email protected].
Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards The membership of the Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Working Group is shown in Appendix 2. This group agreed the inclusion of individual data items using the following criteria:
Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards
6
• Is the data item one which would reasonably be expected to be collected for Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions?
• Is the data item required to prevent duplication of recording? • Is the data item necessary for the on-going health and healthcare of patients receiving
Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Services? • Is the data item currently shared or likely to be shared in the future, amongst healthcare
professionals and key stakeholders? Once consultation was complete the Data Standards were submitted to the NCDDP Programme Board for formal approval as a national standard. Now approved the Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Intervention Data Standards are freely and widely available through publication in the Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. Where possible the data standards are UK compatible. It is expected that the Cardiac Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Intervention Standards 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 Chief Medical Officer established the programme 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 Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards working group identified several generic data items as appropriate for inclusion in their standards. These data items are indicated next to the data item name and definition, which are listed in this document for information. The full detail of these existing standards are published on the web based Health and Social Care Data Dictionary.

Clinical Terminology The strategic standard for clinical terminology in NHS Scotland is SNOMED-Clinical Terms. This means that over the next few years, clinical information systems will progress to record clinical data using this international standard. The NCDDP Support Team will commence development of recommended SNOMED CT specifications as part of the data standards and datasets it supports.
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 Surgery & Percutaneous Cardiac Interventions Data Standards do 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 date format for storage and management within a system should conform to the 1Government 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. An example of a date & time in correct format is: 1997-07-16T19:20 +01:00 (CCYY-MM-DDThh:mmTZD) It is recommended that a time should always be recorded with the appropriate date and not on its own, however it may not be necessary to display the date along with the time. This is of particular importance where any calculations or analyses are likely to be performed. Automated times recorded by IT systems should include all elements of the time, i.e. hours, minutes and seconds, and are expected to be actual. Where times are entered manually, it is likely that only the hours and minutes will be required, although in some circumstances only hours may be required. Time or any element of the time (hours, minutes or seconds) may be actual or estimated. In some circumstances only an actual time may be acceptable, whilst in others an estimated time may be allowed. In the latter situation, it may be necessary to identify whether the time recorded is actual or estimated. Times identified as actual may be used in calculations and analyses. Times marked as estimated should be treated with caution and the implications of undertaking any calculations or analyses should be considered in the particular context within which the time is recorded or to be made subsequent use of. Where an estimated time is allowed, the appropriate degree of verification detail required should be decided, again dependent on the context in which it is recorded and how the time is to be used. 1Government Data Standards Catalogue 1. All times must be expressed in the 24 hour clock format, e.g. one minute past midnight is 00:01:00. 2. Values of any element less than 10 should be entered with a zero in the first position. 3. All times for UK transactions/events will be assumed to be GMT.

4. Systems should record whether the time is Coordinated Universal Time or British Summer Time in the “Time zone designator”. This will allow time elapsed to be calculated correctly, for example for A&E waiting times.
