Research

Supporting Research in Primary Care

High Street Surgery actively supports clinical research studies within primary care.

The NHS Constitution states that Research is a core function of the NHS. Clinical Research is a major driver of innovation and central to NHS practice for maintaining and developing high standards of patient care.

Ultimately, clinical research means patients get access to new treatments, interventions and medicines. Investment in research means better, more cost effective care for patients.

National Institute for Health Research

In 2006 the Department of Health set up The National Institute for Health Research (NIHR) to improve the health and wealth of the nation through Research.

The NIHR Clinical Research Network (CRN) was introduced to provide the infrastructure to the NHS to allow high quality research to be set up and delivered efficiently and effectively.

High Street Surgery is part of a network of local practices participating in research activities under the banner of CRN Yorkshire & Humber.

To find out more about the work of the NIHR Clinical Research Network go to https://www.nihr.ac.uk/ 

What is Primary Care Research?

The CRN Primary Care speciality works in collaboration with researchers and primary care practitioners such as GP’s, practice nurses, pharmacists and dentists to promote the successful delivery of research studies in the NHS. A wide range of research studies are supported which look at:

  • Promoting a healthier lifestyle
  • Disease diagnosis and prevention

IQVIA MRES

This practice is contributing to the IQVIA Medical Research Extraction Scheme (MRES)

IQVIA has set up a research and patient insights programme called the Medical Research Extraction Scheme (MRES) in partnership with EMIS Health to collect non-identified coded patient data from the GP software system. IQVIA use the non-identified patient data for medical and public health research.

Medical research is essential for improving healthcare and tackling the biggest health problems that we face today. Whether you are healthy or have a medical condition, medical research benefits everyone for example by improving doctors’ and scientists’ understanding of how well different medicines work or for detecting any harmful side effects of a medicine.

Health information recorded on patients when they visit the doctor is an invaluable medical research resource that enables a patient’s journey to be tracked from the initial consultation and any investigation through to diagnosis of a condition and treatment. Chronic conditions, in particular, require a long history of data so that signals can be detected, and early risk prediction tools can be designed. Availability of sufficient data and research can drive health policy changes or adoption of new guidelines for healthcare providers, thus leading to improved outcomes for patients.

IQVIA is a global company serving the combined industries of health information technologies and clinical research worldwide. We specialise in the provision of products and services including medical research and analytical solutions to healthcare and life sciences organisations. In the UK, IQVIA has collected and supported the research use of nonidentified patient data for over 20 years.
