Supports identification of patients with FH using the FAMCAT2 algorithm, ranking patients according to likelihood of disease. Enables prioritisation of patient reviews based on capacity. Helps review of lipid management among patients with FH.
PINCER is a pharmacist-led IT based intervention to reduce medication errors in primary care. See information about the foundation, present and future outlook for this highly regarded, nationally adopted intervention programme.
Designed to help practices to identify patients with asthma, COPD or bronchiectasis that might benefit from a spacer in combination with their Pressurised Metered Dose Inhaler (pMDI). The tools has been developed in collaboration with Trudell Ltd.
GRASP-DM has been designed to help practices to optimise the management and care of patients with diabetes and reduce their risk of developing associated complications. The tool has been used by over 3,200 GP practices.
GRASP-HF has been designed to assist GP practices to improve the management and care of patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fracture.
Developed to assist in a Bone Health programme and pilot scheme. The effects of osteoporosis and resulting fragility fractures can have a profound impact on patients and their quality of life. This project can help to optimise medication which is critical to preventing fragility fractures.
PRIMIS has enjoyed a long-standing relationship with Leicester Diabetes Centre (LDC), a world renowned, multi-disciplinary research team who are pioneers behind important academic research and the provision of education to widen the knowledge base for diabetes health and disease management.
PRIMIS has been commissioned by the UKHSA to undertake a study to monitor and evaluate the impact of the implementation of SNOMED CT on the UKHSA national immunisation programme. Over a four-year period, data was collected from a group of approximately 40 practices on a quarterly basis.
PRIMIS is proud to have worked closely with colleagues at the UKHSA since 2015 to support their vaccine uptake monitoring for a variety of immunisation programmes including seasonal influenza and COVID-19
A series of in-depth consultancy workshops on the technical aspects of the SNOMED data model (delivered by PRIMIS Clinical Advisers) has supported Outcomes Based Healthcare in their process for the translation, creation and maintenance of code lists, thus supporting their population segmentation and population health management data products.
As part of a growing collaboration with Leicester Diabetes Centre, PRIMIS is pleased to be working on the D-Med Study. This important research aims to help clinical practice staff with prescribing responsibilities to reduce the proportion of potentially inappropriate diabetes medications prescribed in older people with type 2 diabetes and frailty.
Working with the MND Association, PRIMIS is developing a real time GP clinical system alert that will be triggered if clinical terms entered during consultation are considered indicative of MND when relevant terms pre-exist in the patient record. The alert will provide a template and further information to help steer the consultation to enable a suspected MND referral decision to be made.
The FLU-CAT study involves the real time refinement and validation of criteria and tools used in primary care to aid hospital referral decisions for patients of all ages in the event of a surge during an influenza pandemic.
The PRoTeCT study has been set up to evaluate the effectiveness and cost effectiveness of two different approaches to improving the safety of prescribing medicines in English general practices.
Using a scaling and spread model, PINCER was rolled out to over 2,800 (41%) GP practices in England across all 15 AHSNs. Over 2,350 health care professionals were and just over 27 million patient records searched to identify instances of potentially hazardous prescribing.
Measuring the impact of an intervention to increase the uptake to structured self-management education for people with type 2 diabetes in primary care, shown to be effective in improving glycaemic control. PRIMIS supported the LDC by developing and managing the process for recruiting patients and obtaining outcomes data from participating practices.
