Description:
CVD-COVID-UK, led by Professor Cathie Sudlow, Director of the British Heart Foundation (BHF) Data Science Centre, is one of the National Flagship Projects approved by the NIHR-BHF Cardiovascular Partnership.
It aims to understand the relationship between COVID-19 and cardiovascular diseases such as heart attack, heart failure, stroke, and blood clots in the lungs through analyses of de-identified, pseudonymised, linked, nationally collated healthcare datasets across the four nations of the UK.
CVD-COVID-UK is a collaboration of over 130 members across 40 institutions including data custodians, data scientists with methodological and analytical expertise and clinicians, all of whom have signed up to an agreed set of principles with an inclusive, open and transparent ethos.
Approved researchers will access datasets within secure trusted research environments (TREs) provided by NHS Digital in England, the National Data Safe Haven in Scotland, the SAIL Databank in Wales and the Honest Broker Service in Northern Ireland.
Datasets are available across primary and secondary care, COVID testing, deaths, ITU/HDU admissions, prescribing/dispensing, cardiovascular audits (NICOR), stroke audits (SSNAP) and national vascular registry.
A list of datasets currently available in each nation’s TRE can be found on associated BHF Data Science Centre webpages (URL as below).
