3 INTRODUCTION The purpose of this document is to set out a cardiac work programme for Wales, underpinned by the National Service Framework (NSF) for Disease together with the associated (QRs). The NSF sets standards of care for adult services; these provide a basis for planning and developing services for prevention, and for assessment, diagnosis, treatment, rehabilitation and palliative care. The NSF for Disease contains the following Standards: Standard 1 Promoting healthy hearts Standard 2 Managing risk factors and prevent further heart damage in those with high risk factors or established disease Standard 3 Managing the care of patients with Coronary Heart Disease Standard 4 Managing the care of patients with Chronic Heart Failure Standard 5 Managing the care of patients with Arrhythmias and families of young victims of cardiac arrest Standard 6 Providing Rehabilitation Cross Cutting Interventions cover areas common to the Standards in the NSF. Standard 7 is in development and will focus on managing the care of adults with congenital heart disease. It will be included in the full NSF for Disease when it is published later in The prevention of cardiovascular disease, and the strategic aims of the NSF for Disease, reflect and connect with the Public Health Strategic Framework for Wales, A Healthy Future', which is currently being developed. As agreed by the Minister for Health and Social Services, 'A Healthy Future has two key goals - to improve the quality and length of life and to promote equity in health. 'A Healthy Future' is due to be published by April PART 1: STRATEGIC AIMS Part 1 of this document sets out the two strategic aims that the Welsh Assembly Government (WAG) wants to achieve in terms of cardiac disease. These are firstly, to prevent cardiovascular disease and secondly, to improve survival rates and maximise quality of life for those with cardiac disease. A monitoring framework for the cardiac work programme is to be agreed by WAG with support from key stakeholders. Disease Strategic Framework
4 STRATEGIC AIM ONE Prevent cardiovascular disease Supported by the NSF for Disease: Standard 1 and elements of Standard 2 OUTCOME (and Data Sources) Comparable incidence rates with the lowest world quartile by 2015 Data source: ONS Published health gain target Reduction in CHD mortality (EASR) in year olds to 400 per 100,000 EASR Data source: ONS OUTPUT (and Data Sources) Improved Lifestyles i.e. improved diet; weight; increased exercise; reduced salt; reduced alcohol intake; reduction in smoking rates. Data Sources: Welsh Health Survey Uptake of smoking cessation and quit rates Effective management of those at risk of CVD in Primary Care Data Source: QOF Disease Strategic Framework
5 STRATEGIC AIM TWO Improve survival rates & maximise quality of life for those with cardiac disease Supported by the NSF for Disease: Elements of Standard 2; Standards 3,4,5,6,7; Crosscutting interventions OUTCOME (and Data Sources) Published health gain target To improve CHD mortality in all groups and at the same time aim for a more rapid improvement in the most deprived groups (quintiles of deprivation) Data source ONS OUTPUT (and Data Sources) Achievement of RTT Waiting Times Data Source: WAG Access rates for interventions per million population Angiography PCI CABG Biventricular pacemaker implantation Catheter ablation ICD implantation Permanent Pacemaker implantation Data Source: PEDW Disease Strategic Framework

Disease Strategic Framework
7 PART 2 : IMPLEMENTATION The National Service Framework for Disease has accompanying (QRs) which reflect the content of the NSF and are mapped to the National Healthcare Standards. Developed to support NSF implementation, they have been widely shared across Wales and are already being used to drive Network activity. The have clearly stated demonstrations of compliance and can be monitored by self assessment. Part 2 of the cardiac work programme is based upon the NSF Standards and the. It groups the QRs and sets broad time scales for implementation. Key Actions which relate to Cross Cutting Interventions (for example patient and carer information) are relevant to a number of Key Actions. Where guidelines are required as part of Key Actions, the QRs provide details of what should be agreed and by whom. The Networks Co-ordinating Group (CNCG) provides a mechanism whereby the Regional Networks can work together to support implementation.
