Trials & Cohort Studies • The gold standards • Increasing in number • Low hanging fruit harvested • Increasing in size • Therefore cost increasing Published RCTs per annum
Since 1990, one new cohort per annum • ½ followed up for >20yrs • Includes: • Million Women Study • UK Biobank • £28M pa on the 34 largest, ongoing UK population cohort studies
Using routine data as anadjunct to traditional methods • Increase VFM • Reducing costs • Providing additional information • Selection • Stratification • Exposures, confounders • Follow-up
Randomised controlled trials Long-term follow-up of WOSCoPS All-cause mortality CHD mortality
Using routine data to conduct studies Systematic review of 98 clinical trials: • 29% of potential subjects excluded by trials • A further 29% refuse to participate Melberg HO, Humphreys K.

Prescribing Information System (PIS) • Pharmaco-epidemiology; pharmaco-vigilence; precision medicine • Information on medicines prescribed, dispensed and reimbursed • Covers all NHS prescriptions dispensed in the community • Includes prescribed by GP, practice nurse, dentist and hospital • Does not cover hospital prescriptions dispensed in hospital • Covers whole Scottish population (5.2 million) • Includes prescriptions issued in England but dispensed in Scotland • 1993 - set up for budgeting/reimbursement – provided aggregated data • 2009 - achieved 100% CHI coverage – individual level data • Linkable to other databases • Currently (1993-2014) data on: • 507 million medications prescribed • 344 million medications dispensed • InFormation on • Prescriber • Dispenser • Medication – manufacturer, formulation, stregth, dose
Potential uses • Drug as intervention • Outcomes • Clinical / cost effectiveness • Adverse outcomes / ADRs • Precision medicine • Interactions / sub-groups • Health services research • Patterns of usage; health inequalities • Factors associated with uptake/compliance • Drug as proxy of disease
