This report aims to identify patients prescribed Methotrexate and Azathioprine who have not had a Full Blood Count done in the past 16 weeks thus highlighting patients at risk for timely intervention. Encourage feedback to further develop the report output.Indicate those patients in a practice with multiple long term conditions (selection of LTCs and their clinical criteria approved by SCIMP).A multimorbidity report at practice level will inform the design of future reports at a cluster and/or Health & Social Care Partnership level. Patients within a practice who have two or more long term conditions (LTCs) may require a more coordinated approach to address their combination of healthcare needs. Encouraging GPs and other healthcare professionals to use the eFI score to identify frailty and to target preventative community-based support that enables people to live well in the community and avoid hospital admissions.Calculating an eFI score and stratify practice patients by this score.The purpose of this is to identify people living in the community who are frail before they have a crisis that requires an acute admission or other serious intervention by: This report aims to identify and stratify patients within a practice by a frailty index score which is calculated through a cumulative deficit approach.

For further information about any of these reports please contact the Primary Care Team at note: SPIRE reports do not give professional advice physicians and other healthcare professionals should exercise their own clinical judgement based on the information SPIRE reports provide. Note, these reports run locally in the practice and no data are extracted. The following is a list of SPIRE reports available to GP Practices.
SPIRE OFFLINE
If you wish to request data through SPIRE please complete the data request form either on the SPIRE website or the offline version. Information is not stored for longer than necessary, and any information is safely destroyed after use. Patients can also ask their GP for their data to be excluded from any patient identifiable extracts. The practices can then choose whether or not they want to opt-in to the request. All such information requests need to be approved by the SPIRE Strategy and Oversight Group prior to being sent out to GP practices. Instead, individual requests for small amounts of information relating to specific purposes will be sent to practices. There is not a central dataset containing all of the GP practice information for Scotland. SPIRE uses a different model for data collection than is used for other ISD datasets. More information about SPIRE and the current status of its deployment are available on the SPIRE website. SPIRE also provides a platform for practices to see information about their patients, though report on topics such as practice activity, vaccination uptake and multimorbidity. It is a service which allows information to be requested from GP practice records and collected centrally to produce statistics for Scotland as a whole. SPIRE is the Scottish Primary Care Information Resource. SPIRE Reporting and Extraction Processes What is SPIRE? The SPIRE website contains information for both the general public and healthcare professionals.
