Changes to the NVR IT system

We have made a number of changes to the NVR IT system in January 2016. These include:

• The ability to enter a major amputation following a lower limb bypass, where the procedures occurred within the same hospital admission. More information about this can be found on our website.
• The ability to show results in the online reporting tables by primary operator only.
• The upload facility has been made available to the NVR project team.
• Various changes to the AAA repair, amputation, bypass and carotid endarterectomy datasets.

Full information regarding these changes can be found in this document on our website.

Below are the current key dates for the publication of consultant and trust level results for elective infra-renal AAA repairs and carotid endarterectomy in 2016.  We will be analysing elective infra-renal AAA repairs undertaken between 1/1/2011 and 31/12/2015 and CEAs between 1/1/2013 and 31/12/2015.
