Research and audit
I have been actively involved in primary care research and audit since 1981.
My main arease of current interest are:
- Asthma diagnosis
- Uncontrolled asthma exacerbations, and severe asthma
- Detecting uncontrolled COPD patients
- management of COPD Exacerbations
- Occupational asthma
- Medical Audit
- COPD Exacerbations- Health Forecasting
A suite of online medical audits for use by health professionals in primary care
The overall aim of these audits is to provide clinicians with a facility to audit and compare their care of patients with other colleagues.
What is it?
This is an internet-based international system for doing medical audit, located on a secure server, with password protected access to their own data for those participating as well as public access to anonymised data. This provides a benchmarking system for practices (or individual GPs or nurses) to compare their clinical management of patients. This process enables health care professionals to implement changes to their practice where appropriate when comparing their achievement against standards (based on guidelines) with those of others locally and internationally.
