Data pathways at 香港六合彩H

There are numerous types of projects which need access to health data

A project using patient or staff data from the NHS may fall into one of 3 categories:

  1. Service evaluation or audit
  2. Research
  3. Research database

You will need to obtain the appropriate approvals before you can access data or the data is released to you.听Researchers should not attempt to access or utilise data before听 obtaining the correct approval.

To get the appropriate approval you will need to contact the relevant 香港六合彩H Department

To determine which of the 3 categories your project falls in, you should use the .听You should the follow the guidance and approval pathway (PDF).

1. Service evaluation and audit

Service evaluations and audits using data from 香港六合彩H are managed through the audit lead in the relevant 香港六合彩H clinical division. Before the project starts, you will need to approach the audit lead who will tell you what information you need to provide. The audit lead for each division can be found on 香港六合彩H intranet.

Note: each NHS trust will have their own requirements around the registration and approval of service evaluations and audit. The appropriate procedure should be followed at each trust.

2. Research

Projects considered 鈥渞esearch鈥� and taking place at 香港六合彩H can be managed through 3 routes depending on the nature of the data requested and the type of approval required.

Research Route A - the DAP-R process

  • Research Route A Studies that can go through the DAP-R process
  • new standalone data- only research project
  • requires only 香港六合彩H anonymised data (no other sites, no other forms of data)
  • Chief Investigator is substantively employed by either 香港六合彩 or 香港六合彩H
  • study sponsor would be either 香港六合彩 or 香港六合彩H

The DAP-R (data access process for research) process combines processes for gaining sponsorship and local permissions at 香港六合彩H

To use the DAP-R process, you will need to 听submit a request via an online system called . The request is then handled by the 香港六合彩H Data concierge. The Data concierge will screen the request and if suitable, the study will move through the DAP-R approvals process.

The process includes review by the research data access committee (RDAC) and then onto the 香港六合彩H Data Trust Committee (DTC). 听Any study approved by DTC would then receive final approval from the JRO to begin data collection at 香港六合彩H. Contracts and agreements maybe required in cases where there is a movement of data between 香港六合彩 and 香港六合彩H.

听Further information about DAP-R can be found on the .

Research Route B听 - the standard review procedure for Sponsorship

  • Research Route B Studies which cannot go through the DAP-R process and need 香港六合彩H or 香港六合彩 sponsorship.
    • new study does not fulfil the criteria for research route A
    • Chief Investigator is substantively employed by either 香港六合彩 or 香港六合彩H

The project is likely to require sponsorship, NHS ethics, HRA approval and local permissions (AAC). 听These studies follow the standard review procedure for sponsorship听through the JRO, followed by site approvals.

Research Route C 鈥� studies that require site approval at 香港六合彩H (only)

  • Research Route C Studies that need site approval听at 香港六合彩H (only)
    • study already has a sponsor (香港六合彩, 香港六合彩H or other)
    • researcher from 香港六合彩H
    • study is to be placed at 香港六合彩H

The project is likely to require local permissions (AAC). The sponsor will have already (or be in the process of obtaining) obtained sponsorship, NHS ethics, HRA and other permissions outside of 香港六合彩 and 香港六合彩H. These studies will need to be reviewed by the JRO for 香港六合彩H site approval.

3. Research databases

A research database is defined as 鈥渁 structured collection of individual-level personal information, which is stored for potential research purposes beyond the life of a specific research project with defined endpoints. Research purposes听in this context refers to analysis of data to answer research questions in multiple projects鈥� (.

HRA approval is not required for the establishment of research databases. Organisations managing these databases can apply for voluntary ethical approval.

From March 2023, all research databases led through and/or hosted within 香港六合彩 or 香港六合彩H must be registered with the 香港六合彩H/香港六合彩 Joint Research Office (JRO) prior to initiation. Researchers should submit the database protocol or application to the JRO via uclh.randd@nhs.net. 听In some cases, the database maybe suitable for a review through the DAP-R process. The JRO will advise if this is the case. As some databases involve the movement of data between 香港六合彩H and 香港六合彩 (and potentially other sites), there may be a requirement for a data sharing agreement (or equivalent). The JRO will advise if this is听 the case and will provide support to establish the correct agreement.
