Death rate per 100,000 population Target: 40% minimum reduction from 1995-97 baseline rate baselineProgresstarget Source: ONS (ICD9 390-459; ICD10 I00-I99) 141.0 84.6 SAVING LIVES Circulatory Disease Mortality Target Death rates from All Circulatory Disease in England 1993-2006 and target Persons under 75 84.2 Rates are calculated using the European Standard Population to take account of differences in age structure. ICD9 data for 1993 to 1998 and 2000 have been adjusted to be comparable with ICD10 data for 1999 and 2001 onwards. 3 year average Progress since baseline: A fall of 40.3% Target achieved five years ahead of schedule Immortality guaranteed by 2026

23. Rationale for NIAP Need for test of feasibility in NHS Need for cost-effectiveness data relevant to NHS

24. PPCI Lysis No Reperfusion

25. NIAP and National Guidance launch event Key issues –General acceptance of direction of travel –Debate regarding the proportion of the population that would still require thrombolysis –DH estimate that we can reach 97% of population, others more like 80% Other issues –Some pushback regarding our statement advising against hybrid models

33. Future Network Plans 10 networks have full 24/7 PPCI service 6 networks have a business case for PPCI Of these: 3 networks plan to have 24/7 PPCI by March 2009 1 network will commence in Jan 2010 12 in the process of developing business case Some hybrid service due to travel times and 120 minute window

38. Consensus event 24 th September One fifth of England’s cardiologists present General agreement that Networks were the right building blocks for planning purposes for angioplasty services General agreement that BCIS had a major role in setting standards and continuing peer review visits General agreement that we should move to reporting and publishing outcome data Less consensus as to how and where PCI services should be provided Also doubts about minimum numbers for PPCI
