Overview & Background Overview The Maternity Data Standards were developed to support the work of the Maternal and Child Health Information Strategy Group (MCHISG) in procuring and implementing an IT system across Scotland. These data standards ensure a national approach to the collection of clinical and non-clinical data items relating to maternity. The data standards for maternity care will ensure a national approach in the collection of clinically relevant data items recorded in a wide variety of settings. This will ensure inter-compatibility of national clinical information systems and the Scottish Woman-Held Maternity Record (SWHMR) and support the implementation of an electronic integrated maternity health record and data sharing with other agencies. A Maternity Clinical Working Group was established in September 2006 to progress this work, supported by the National Clinical Dataset Development Programme (NCDDP) Support Team in Information Services (ISD). Following a review of the NHSScotland National eHealth Strategy and the eHealth Programme Board’s decision to accelerate the acquisition of an information system to support Maternity services, it was decided that a phased approach to developing the Maternity Data Standards would be required. Phase 1 (Antenatal) is addressed in this Consultation Document. Work on Phase 2 (Birth and Labour) will commence in mid - late 2007 and it is forecast that Phase 3 (Postnatal) will commence in 2008. The Maternity Data Standards will:

• Support the care of patients through more accessible and timely collection of information

• Prevent duplication of records • Encourage high standards of record keeping • Contribute to multidisciplinary maternity care • Promote woman–centred, holistic maternity care • Support the development of an electronic health record

There is a potential impact on existing IT systems, as some re-design may be required to comply with the agreed data standards. It is important to emphasise that these are data standards rather than a dataset. This means that the individual data items included in this document are not required to be recorded together in a single clinical information system. For example it may not be necessary to record every item for every person subject to their maternal assessment. However, where it is considered appropriate to record a particular data item as part of a person’s maternal assessment, the information should be recorded in accordance with the nationally agreed standard. Some data items may only be appropriate for use by clinicians within certain specialist settings and therefore would not be used by a clinician outwith such a setting. The data standards contain data items from Generic Data Standards and other Clinical Datasets, which have previously been developed through the NCDDP and are freely available in the Clinical Datasets section of the web-based Health & Social Care Data Dictionary.

We are now seeking feedback from the wider clinical community in order to ensure that these data standards are fit for purpose. We invite all interested organisations and individuals to take part in this consultation by completing the attached Consultation Response Form and then returning it to [email protected]. Comments on all or any part of the document are welcome. Some background information on the NCDDP and the Data Standards development can be found below. If you have any further queries, please go to our website: http://www.clinicaldatasets.scot.nhs.uk/ or contact [email protected]. Maternity Data Standards The membership of the Maternity Data Standards Clinical Working Group is shown in Appendix 1. This group agreed the inclusion of individual data items concerning maternity using the following criteria: • Is the data item one, which would reasonably be expected to be collected for women,

unborn/newborn baby(ies) accessing maternity health services/care? • Will it prevent unnecessary duplication of data recording? • Is the data item one, which would be used by the maternity health service to ensure

appropriate care? • Is the data likely to be shared among health care professionals (as justified by clinical

need and patient consent) Once consultation is complete the Maternity Data Standards will be submitted to the NCDD Programme Board for formal approval as a national standard. Once approved the Maternity Standards will be freely and widely available through publication in the Health & Social Care Data Dictionary. As far as possible they are UK compatible. It is expected that the Maternity Data Standards will be implemented within existing and emerging national clinical information systems and commercially procured national products, as well as being available to commercial developers to ensure the ability of their systems to support national information requirements. Following approval, the Maternity Data Standards will be reviewed every two years to ensure that they remain fit for purpose. Background to NCDDP The National Clinical Dataset Development Programme (NCDDP) supports clinicians to develop sets of interoperable national datasets to facilitate the implementation of the integrated care records across NHS Scotland. These standards will:

• Support direct patient care, by reflecting current best practice guidance • Facilitate effective communication between health care professionals • Improve data quality and support secondary data requirements where possible

including data to support clinical governance • Be freely and widely available through publication in the web-based Health & Social

Care Data Dictionary

Maternity Phase 1- Antenatal Data Standards

• Incorporate agreed national clinical definitions and implement national terminology • Be UK compatible where possible

The Chief Medical Officer established the programme in 2003 to support clinicians developing national clinical data standards, initially to support the national priority areas. These standards are an essential element of the Electronic Health Record, a central aim of the National e-Health Strategy. More information can be found on our website: http://www.clinicaldatasets.scot.nhs.uk/. Generic Data Standards Data standards which are relevant to all patients and are used across specialties, disciplines and settings have already been developed by other clinical working groups and approved as national data standards for NHS Scotland. Those data items identified by the Maternity Working Group as appropriate for inclusion in their dataset are listed in this document for information. The full details of these existing standards are published on the web-based Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. Clinical Terminology

The strategic standard for clinical terminology in NHS Scotland is SNOMED-Clinical Terms. This means that over the next few years, clinical information systems will progress to record clinical data using this international standard. The NCDDP Support Team will commence in the near future, development of recommended SNOMED-CT specifications as part of the data standards and datasets it supports. Date Recording It is good record-keeping practice always to identify the date of recording of any clinical information. It is expected that all clinical information systems should include “date stamping” as standard functionality; therefore the Maternity Data Standards do not deal with this issue. In many clinical situations, the date of an event, investigation, etc is required for clinical purposes and should be visible to the health care professional. This date may not be the same as the date on which the data are entered onto the system. In these instances the system must allow the health care professional to enter whichever date is appropriate. These issues must be addressed during system specification and development. The date format for storage and management within a system should conform to the Government Data Standards Catalogue format: CCYY-MM-DD. However, this does not preclude entry or display of data on the user interface using the traditional DD-MM-CCYY format. An example of a date & time in correct format is: 1997-07-16T19:20:30+01:00 (CCYY-MM-DDThh: mmTZD). It is recommended that a time should always be recorded with the appropriate date and not on its own, however it may not be necessary to display the date along with the time. This is of particular importance where any calculations or analyses are likely to be performed. Automated times recorded by IT systems should include all elements of the time, i.e. hour, minutes and seconds, and are expected to be actual. Where times are entered manually, it is likely that only the hours and minutes will be required, although in some circumstances only hours may be required.

Maternity Phase 1- Antenatal Data Standards

Time, or any element of the time (hours, minutes or seconds) may be actual or estimated. In some circumstances only an actual time may be acceptable, whilst in others an estimated time may be allowed. In the latter situation, it may be necessary to identify whether the time recorded is actual or estimated. Times identified as actual may be used in calculations and analyses. Times marked as estimated should be treated with caution and the implications of undertaking any calculations or analyses should be considered in the particular context within which the time is recorded or to be made subsequent use of. Where an estimated time is allowed, the appropriate degree of verification detail required should be decided, again dependent on the context in which it is recorded and how the time is to be used. Government Data Standards Catalogue 1. All times must be expressed in the 24 hour clock format, e.g. one minute past midnight is

00:01:00. 2. Values of any element less than 10 should be entered with a zero in the first position. 3. All times for UK transactions/ events will be assumed to be GMT. 4. Systems should record whether the time is Coordinated Universal Time or British

Summer Time in the “Time zone designator”. This will allow time elapsed to be calculated correctly, for example for A&E waiting times

Further Information: The specialist capacity in which a professional is employed is not necessarily the same as the specialist registration status of that person with their professional body. Other aspects such as the grade of the professional should be taken into account. For example, a doctor in a training grade or Staff and Associated Specialist (SAS) grade may legitimately be employed to work in a specialist area without being registered on the GMC Specialist Register for that specialty. However, a consultant employed in that specialist area would probably be expected to have appropriate specialist registration. It is the responsibility of the employing body to ensure that the professional is suitably qualified for the post to which they are appointed. Recording Guidance: Each clinical working group may augment this data model by defining their own sub-specialty code list suitable for local use. 1.3 Associated Professional Role {Maternity} Common Name: Associated Care Professional Role Definition: Professionals are those individuals who are involved with the client/patient in a professional capacity (e.g. Consultant, Social Worker, Occupational Therapist etc). The particular role(s) carried out by each professional is (are) indicated by this data item.

3. Previous Pregnancies The following section contains data standards that could be relevant in both the Antenatal and Birth and Labour parts of a woman’s record. It is envisaged that in this section the attribute ‘Previous Pregnancy’ relates to the Antenatal section of care, whereas ‘Current Pregnancy’ will relate to the next phase of development – Birth and Labour. Data Item Number Parity 3.1 Gravidity 3.2 Pregnancy Problems 3.3 Onset of Labour 3.4 Delivery Mode 3.5 Presentation 3.6 Vaginal Delivery Instrument Type 3.7 Delivery Mode Reason (Instrumental Vaginal Delivery) 3.8 Failed Vaginal Instrumental Delivery Indicator 3.9 Failed Vaginal Instrumental Delivery – Instrument Type 3.10 Delivery Mode Reason (Abdominal Delivery) 3.11 Urgency of Caesarean Section 3.12 Pregnancy Outcome 3.13 Livebirth Outcome Indicator 3.14 Neonatal Death (Stage of) 3.15 Termination of Pregnancy Method 3.16 Termination of Pregnancy Reason 3.17 Post-Delivery Problems (Previous Pregnancies) 3.18 Neonatal Concern(s) Indicator (Previous Pregnancies) 3.19 Neonatal Unit Admission (Previous Pregnancies) 3.20 Feeding Status 3.21

3.1 Parity

The following data standard has been produced by modifying the existing item that is displayed in the Health and Social Care Data Dictionary. Its adoption will mean that change

control is required to the existing item. Please refer to the attached document ‘Maternity-Proposed Changes Document’ for a comparison of the existing and proposed data standard.

Before this item can be published in the Health and Social Care Data Dictionary, it will be put

through the Change Control process to authorise the proposed changes. Definition: The total number of pregnancies a woman has had prior to any current pregnancy. Format: Characters Field Length: nn+nn (total 5) Codes and Values: N/A Further Information: Clinically, these pregnancies are usually expressed as firstly the number that have resulted in the birth of an infant capable of survival or stillborn and secondly the number of pregnancies that have ended in miscarriage or termination.

Parity refers to the number of pregnancies not the number of babies. A woman who has only had one pregnancy, but it resulted in twins is para 01+00. Recording Guidance: Can be derived from the Data Standard ‘Pregnancy Outcome’. 3.2 Gravidity Definition: The total number of times in her lifetime a woman has been pregnant, including her current pregnancy. Format: Numeric Field Length: 2 Codes and Values: N/A Further Information: Gravidity refers to the number of pregnancies not the number of babies, regardless of outcome. A twin or multiple pregnancy would count as 1. 3.3 Pregnancy Problems Definition: A record of any type(s) of problem(s) experienced during pregnancy, which is (are) of relevance to the antenatal care of the woman and/or care of the baby.

Further Information: This item should be recorded with the Degree of Relative. Often only family history in first-degree relatives is documented as of interest to clinicians. This data item records the presence of any conditions and diagnoses known to be diagnosed in at least one first, second or third degree relative. Drop-down lists of terms for common family history conditions can be developed within the context of specific clinical data standards/datasets. Where an IT system is currently unable to implement the appropriate clinical terminology(ies) within its functionality, it may be possible to record family history using free text. This is not recommended as a long-term option. Recording Guidance: This data item may be applied using a list of SNOMED-CT (SCT) codes for the conditions of interest in the clinical area in question. Systems should allow for recording of multiple conditions. It may be appropriate to record associated date(s) of diagnosis. It is recommended that IT systems incorporate a clinical terminology browser to facilitate recording of personal history. The browser should allow selection and display of clinical terms on the user interface whilst storing, managing and transferring such data by the corresponding clinical code. Family History should be recorded on admission or date of contact as appropriate to the episode of care. 4.2 Genetic Clinic Attendance by Family Definition: An indication of whether or not anyone in the pregnant woman’s family and/or the baby’s biological father’s family have attended, or are attending a genetics clinic in relation to genetic issues.

Recording Guidance: This data item may be applied using a list of SNOMED-CT (SCT) codes for the conditions of interest in the clinical area in question. Systems should allow for recording of multiple conditions. It may be appropriate to record associated date(s) of diagnosis. It is recommended that IT systems incorporate a clinical terminology browser to facilitate recording of personal history. The browser should allow selection and display of clinical terms on the user interface whilst storing, managing and transferring such data by the corresponding clinical code. This information may be taken from the patient, carer, or recorded in the patient’s case record or on the referral document pertaining to an illness, injury or associated health care problem experienced by the patient. Do not include suspected conditions. Remember that patients do not always disclose all their medical problems. Personal History should be recorded on admission or date of contact as appropriate to the episode of care. Complications and recurrences during an episode of care should be recorded with the date of diagnosis. Personal History will also be recorded on discharge (SCI Immediate Discharge letter).
