Key Performance Indicators for non-cancer screening programmes

Across the non-cancer screening programmes, we have started to collect Key Performance Indicators (KPIs). We hope that the data and information derived from the KPIs will inform the IDPS Programme about key aspects for the services. The KPIs for the IDPS programme are listed below, and a full description of them can be found on the UK Screening Portal.

Number	Name	Collected from	First Return
ID 1	HIV coverage	Quarter 2, 2010/11	31/12/2010
ID 2	Timely referral of hepatitis B positive women for specialist assessment	Quarter 4, 2010-11	30/06/2011

Since 2004, the Health Protection Agency's National Antenatal Infection Screening Monitoring (NAISM) Programme has had a formal role in centrally collating, analysing and publishing IDPS data.

This Programme monitors the uptake of antenatal screening and the proportion of screened women that test positive for hepatitis B, HIV and syphilis and susceptible to rubella.

Information is requested at maternity unit or trust level on the number of pregnant women attending for antenatal care, the number screened for each of the four infections, and the results of the screening tests. It is reported using a proforma and supplied quarterly to the HPA Regional Epidemiologist or the Regional Antenatal and Child Health Screening Co-ordinator. The data are then cleaned and forwarded to the NAISM Programme where they are analysed and published annually.
