Administrative and clinical information for bowel screening; currently offered to men and women who are resident in Wales aged between 60 and 74 years old.

Please note: the two tables &amp;#039;BSW Consultation&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;BSW Outcomes&amp;#039; are project-specific, and require additional governance permission from the data owner before they can be provisioned.

Approx 70-80% coverage of Welsh population through GP registrations.

SAIL Databank (Wales)

[&amp;quot;Public Health Wales NHS Trust&amp;quot;]

Encrypted Anonymised Linking Field (ALF). This field is derived from by double encryption after splitting demographic information and clinical information; the first encryption occurs in NHS Wales Informatics Service (NWIS), and the second in SAIL. If the NHS number is not supplied in the data extract, then matching methods are applied; please refer to ALF_MTCH_PCT.

ALF_E

Encrypted Unique Bowel Screening Wales ID reference number, joined with Encrypted Anonymised Linking Field (ALF), to give demographic information for Bowel Screening individuals and tests/results by anonymised individual, as well as geographic data down to the LSOA level.

BSW_ALF

Anonymised Linked Field Match Percentage. This number is a match % score from probabalistic matching, when joining together anonymised data. This linkage process consists of matching against the Welsh Demographic Service by NHS number, where a valid number exists, and where there is no valid number then matching is attempted using first name, surname, date of birth, and postcode. This is an artificial score with no real-world meaning; i.e. a match of .99 does not mean there is a 99% chance the match is correct. This number is assigned when deriving the Encrypted Anonymised Linking Field.

ALF_MTCH_PCT

Anonymised Linked Field Status Code. This is assigned when deriving the Encrypted Anonymised Linking Field.

ALF_STS_CD

FIELD_4

This is the sex (gender) of person, employee or patient. Can potentially assist in correct identification of gender-specific primary cancer sites. Can potentially be different from gender identity as stated/assigned at birth.

GNDR_CD

LSOA2011_CD

PROCESSED_DATE

Encrypted Unique Bowel Screening Wales ID reference number for data linkage.

SYSTEM_ID_E

The date of the Monday that occurs prior, or on, the actual date of birth. Access to this data item is limited, however, as it can be used to calculate age at specific events. Possible errors in extract may include patients with events and event dates before WOB.

APPT_DATE

Contains details of all Consultations for a bowel screening test and the type of invitation. Data available from the end of October 2008 onwards. NOTE1 - Evidence does not support population screening for those aged over 74. Bowel Screening Wales does not facilitate for individuals to opt into the programme beyond the age of 74 years. Once the programme has fully optimised NHS hope to work with Welsh Government to allow for opt-ins. All men and women aged 60 to 74 who are registered with a GP in England and Wales are automatically sent a bowel cancer screening kit every 2 years. NOTE2 - In Wales, there is an improvement plan to offer screening to those aged 50- 59 by April 2023 and NHS have developed a plan to achieve this in stages.

BSW_CONSULTATION

APPT_TYPE

ATTENDED

Body Mass Index of the participant captured in the assessment form
