Description

The Brain Health Data Pilot (BHDP) project aims to be a shared database (like a library) of information for scientists studying brain health, especially for diseases like dementia, which affects about 900,000 people in the UK. Its main feature is a huge collection of brain images linked to routinely collected health records, both from NHS Scotland, which will help scientists learn more about dementia and other brain diseases. What is special about this database is that it will get better over time – as scientists use it and add their discoveries, it becomes more valuable. This is a subset of the Outpatient Appointment and Attendances (SMR00) dataset for use in the Brain Health Data Pilot (BHDP) project. An SMR00 is generated for outpatients receiving care in the specialties listed when: -they attend a medical consultant outpatient clinic; -they meet with a consultant or senior member of his/her team out with an outpatient clinic session (including the patient's home). -they attend a clinic run by a nurse or an AHP identified as the Health Care Professional Responsible for Care for that clinic and who has legal and clinical responsibility for that patient. The dataset is generally fully complete and ready for analysis three month preceding the current date. So for example at the end of August, data is available until the end of May.
