A zone design algorithm was adapted to delineate health service areas through a cross-sectional, ecological study design. Health sub-districts were merged into health service areas such that patient f...
Clear patterns of cross border movement to give birth emerged from the analysis, but more women originated closer to the hospitals. After merging the 250 sub-districts in 33 districts, 11 health servi...
Health planning can be improved by using routine health data to delineate natural catchment health districts. In addition, data-driven geographic boundaries derived from public health events will impr...
One in eight children in the United Kingdom are estimated to have a mental health condition, and many do not receive support or treatment. The COVID-19 pandemic has negatively impacted mental health a...
We analysed records for all mental health prescriptions and referrals to specialist mental health outpatient care between the years of 2015 and 2021 for children aged 2 to 17 years in a single NHS Sco...
We identified 18,732 children with 178,657 mental health prescriptions and 21,874 referrals to specialist outpatient care. Prescriptions increased by 59% over the study period. Boys received double th...
The large increase in mental health prescribing and changes in referrals to specialist outpatient care aligns with emerging evidence of increasing poor mental health, particularly since the start of t...
Among observational studies of routinely collected health data (RCD) for exploring treatment effects, algorithms are used to identify study variables. However, the extent to which algorithms are relia...
We searched PubMed for observational studies published in 2018 that used RCD to explore drug treatment effects. Information regarding the reporting, validation, and interpretation of algorithms was ex...
A total of 222 studies were included, of which 93 (41.9%) provided a complete list of algorithms for identifying participants, 36 (16.2%) for exposure, and 132 (59.5%) for outcomes, and 15 (6.8%) for ...
In observational studies of RCD, the algorithms for variable identification were not regularly validated, and-even if validated-the methodological approach and performance of the validation were often...
Many administrative health data-based studies define patient cohorts using procedure and diagnosis codes. The impact these criteria have on a study's final cohort is not always transparent to co-inves...
To assess the apparent validity of observational studies of elective arthroplasty interventions....
Data from the nationwide Dutch Arthroplasty Register were used. The first case study compared surgical approaches for total hip arthroplasty (posterolateral approach vs. straight lateral approach), wh...
The study of posterolateral approach versus straight lateral approach included 73,750 and 16,557 patients, respectively, and showed no meaningful differences in patient characteristics between treatme...
This study provides insight in the reasoning behind the credibility of observational studies of surgical interventions using routinely collected data and when confounding is expected to have a major i...
During the Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic it became apparent that it is difficult to extract standardized Electronic Health Record (EHR) data for secondary purposes like public health de...
The following routinely collected EHR data items to identify COVID-19 patients were evaluated: positive reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test results; problem list codes for CO...
The total dataset consisted of 402 patients: 196 'COVID-19' and 206 'non-COVID-19' patients. F...
Our study showed that one cannot rely on individual routinely collected data items such as coded COVID-19 on problem lists to identify all COVID-19 patients. If information is not required real-time, ...
