Prevalence of overweight - Reception - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull Wards

This dataset presents the percentage of children aged 4 to 5 years in Reception who are classified as overweight or living with obesity. The data is sourced from the National Child Measurement Programme (NCMP), managed by NHS England, and provides a snapshot of early childhood weight status across England. It is a key indicator for monitoring trends in childhood obesity and informing public health interventions aimed at improving children's health outcomes. ## Rationale The rationale behind this indicator is to reduce the proportion of children in Reception who are overweight or obese. Early childhood is a critical period for establishing healthy behaviours, and excess weight at this age is associated with a higher risk of obesity and related health conditions later in life. Monitoring this metric supports targeted prevention strategies and policy development. ## Numerator The numerator is the number of children in Reception (aged 4 to 5 years) with a valid height and weight measurement who are classified as living with obesity or severe obesity, as recorded by the NCMP. ## Denominator The denominator is the total number of children in Reception (aged 4 to 5 years) with a valid height and weight measurement recorded by the NCMP. ## Caveats There is potential for error in the collection, collation, and interpretation of the data. This includes possible bias due to poor response rates or selective opt-out by participants, which may affect the representativeness of the results. ## External References For more information, visit the [Fingertips Public Health Profiles].

These boundaries are aligned with official administrative areas such as wards and Lower Layer Super Output Areas (LSOAs). * Registered Locality refers to individuals who are registered with GP practices that are assigned to a locality based on the Primary Care Network (PCN) they belong to. These assignments are approximate—PCNs are mapped to a locality based on the location of most of their GP surgeries. As a result, locality-registered patients may live outside the locality, sometimes even in different towns or cities. This distinction is important because some health indicators are only available at GP practice level, without information on where patients actually reside. In such cases, data is attributed to the locality based on GP registration, not residential address.

Preventable diabetic sight loss - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull

This dataset reports the rate of new Certifications of Visual Impairment (CVI) due to diabetic eye disease among individuals aged 12 and over in England. It reflects the number of people newly certified as visually impaired by a consultant ophthalmologist, which initiates the process of registration with a local authority and access to support services. The data is presented as a crude rate per 100,000 population and is sourced from Moorfields Eye Hospital and the Office for National Statistics (ONS). ## Rationale Diabetic eye disease is a leading cause of preventable sight loss. Monitoring the rate of new CVIs due to this condition helps assess the effectiveness of diabetes management and eye screening programmes. Reducing preventable sight loss is a key public health goal, as early detection and treatment can significantly reduce the risk of visual impairment. ## Numerator The numerator is the number of CVI certificates completed by a consultant ophthalmologist for individuals whose sight loss is attributed to diabetic eye disease. This data is collected by The Certifications Office at Moorfields Eye Hospital. ## Denominator The denominator is the population aged 12 and over, based on ONS mid-year population estimates. These figures are aggregated from single-year age and sex data for local authorities in England. ## Caveats Data for some areas, such as Solihull, may be unavailable in certain years due to small numbers. Additionally, individuals may be counted under more than one condition if multiple causes contribute to their sight loss. This may affect the specificity of the indicator. ## External References [Office for National Statistics (ONS)] [Office for Health Improvement and Disparities] [Moorfields Eye Hospital – CVI and Preventable Sight Loss Indicator] [Click here] to explore more from the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Partnerships Outcome Framework.
Seasonal flu vaccinations in over 65s - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull

This dataset provides information on the percentage of people aged 65 and over who received a seasonal flu vaccination. It covers vaccinations administered during the influenza season, which runs from 1st September to the end of February. The data supports public health efforts to monitor and improve flu vaccine uptake among older adults, a group particularly vulnerable to complications from influenza. The dataset is sourced from official government vaccine uptake records. ## Rationale The indicator aims to increase the uptake of seasonal flu immunisations among individuals aged 65 and over. This supports broader public health goals to reduce the burden of influenza-related illness and hospitalisation in older populations. ## Numerator The numerator is the number of flu vaccinations administered to individuals aged 65 and over during the influenza season, from 1st September to the end of February. This data is collected through the GOV Seasonal Flu Vaccine Uptake programme. ## Denominator The denominator is the GP-registered population aged 65 and over on the date of data extraction. It includes all eligible individuals, including those who were offered the vaccine but declined it, ensuring the uptake rate reflects the entire target population. ## Caveats Data collection relies on Read codes used in GP systems to identify patients in clinical risk groups eligible for vaccination. Limitations may arise from incomplete coding or delays in data entry. Additionally, the dataset may not capture all eligible individuals if their records are not updated in time. ## External references * [OHID Fingertips: Seasonal Flu Vaccinations in Over 65s] [Click here] to explore more from the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Partnerships Outcome Framework.

Smoking at the time of delivery - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull

This dataset captures the percentage of mothers in England who are recorded as smokers at the time of delivery. It is a key maternal health indicator, reflecting the prevalence of smoking among pregnant women at the point of childbirth. The data is collected through the NHS England Statistics on Women's Smoking at Time of Delivery (SATOD) and is used to monitor progress in reducing smoking during pregnancy. ## Rationale Smoking during pregnancy poses significant health risks to both the mother and the baby, including increased chances of miscarriage, premature birth, and low birth weight. Reducing the percentage of mothers who smoke at the time of delivery is a public health priority. This indicator supports efforts to improve maternal and child health outcomes by tracking smoking prevalence and informing targeted interventions. ## Numerator The numerator is the number of women known to be smokers at the time of delivery, as recorded in maternity services data. ## Denominator The denominator is also the number of women known to be smokers at the time of delivery, as reported in the same dataset. This suggests the indicator is expressed as a percentage of known cases, excluding unknowns. ## Caveats This indicator is based on observational data and may be subject to measurement bias. Additionally, known IT issues have led to high levels of unknown smoking status in the source data. These issues are expected to improve over time as data systems become more robust and consistent. ## External References More information is available from the following source: * [Statistics on Women's Smoking Status at Time of Delivery - NHS Digital] [Click here] to explore more from the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Partnerships Outcome Framework.
Smoking in adults being treated for substance misuse - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull

This dataset reports the prevalence of smoking among adults aged 18 and over who are admitted to treatment for substance misuse involving alcohol and non-opiate drugs. It is based on data collected at the point of admission through the National Drug Treatment Monitoring System (NDTMS), managed by the Office for Health Improvement and Disparities (OHID). The indicator highlights smoking behaviours in a population with complex health and social needs. ## Rationale Adults undergoing treatment for substance misuse often have significantly higher rates of smoking compared to the general population. Addressing tobacco use in this group is essential for improving overall health outcomes and supporting recovery. This indicator helps monitor smoking prevalence in this vulnerable group and supports targeted cessation efforts within treatment services. ## Numerator The numerator is the number of individuals aged 18 and over who are receiving treatment for substance misuse (alcohol and non-opiates) and are recorded as smokers at the time of admission, according to the NDTMS. ## Denominator The denominator includes all individuals aged 18 and over receiving treatment for substance misuse (alcohol and non-opiates) who have a valid smoking status recorded at admission in the NDTMS. ## Caveats The Solihull value for 2019/20 was not published due to data quality concerns. Additionally, the denominator is limited to individuals who completed a Treatment Outcomes Profile form at both the start of treatment and at their six-month review, which may affect completeness and comparability. ## External References More information is available from the following source: * [Adult Substance Misuse Treatment Statistics - GOV.UK] [Click here] to explore more from the Birmingham and Solihull Integrated Care Partnerships Outcome Framework.
Stroke prevalence - ICP Outcomes Framework - Birmingham and Solihull

This dataset presents the percentage of patients registered with a general practice who have a recorded history of stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA). The data is sourced from the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF) maintained by NHS Digital and reflects the prevalence of these conditions across GP practice populations. It serves as a key indicator for understanding the burden of cardiovascular disease within primary care settings. ## Rationale Stroke and TIA are major contributors to long-term disability and mortality. Monitoring their prevalence supports efforts to reduce the overall burden of cardiovascular disease. By identifying the proportion of patients affected, healthcare providers and policymakers can better allocate resources, plan interventions, and track progress in prevention and management strategies. ## Numerator The numerator consists of patients with a recorded diagnosis of stroke or transient ischaemic attack (TIA) on their GP practice's disease register. This information is collected through the Quality and Outcomes Framework (QOF), which incentivizes practices to maintain accurate and up-to-date clinical records. ## Denominator The denominator is the total number of patients registered at the GP practice, also sourced from the QOF. This provides the context needed to calculate the percentage of patients affected by stroke or TIA. ## Caveats There are no specific caveats noted for this indicator. However, it is important to consider that the accuracy of the data depends on consistent and comprehensive recording practices across GP surgeries. Variations in coding or diagnosis thresholds may affect comparability. ## External References Further information and related indicators can be found on the [Fingertips Public Health Profiles] website.
