The Prototype Health Data Source Inventory v0.6 is a dataset
that describes a snapshot of local health and care related data in and around
Bristol.
The HDSI (v0.6) is a prototype partnership ‘information asset
register’ (*1) drawn from local organisations during late 2016 and early 2017,
and has been collated from the organisations that contribute to Bristol Health
Partners (*2), selected partners in the local Sustainability and Transformation
Partnership (*3) and key health informatics and research initiatives (*4). The
HDSI contains no personal data.
The HDSI provides an overview of data sets, data systems and
data sources on people’s health; wider determinants of health and some health
service data.
It is non exhaustive and presented as an example of an
information asset register. Data items within are indicative rather than an
up-to-date picture of current assets.
*note. The Patient data in the Health Data Sources referred to
in the inventory is shared for direct clinical care and for approved official
administrative use, health research and other regulated uses. Access requests
for the data will be fielded to the appropriate health research organisation
such as the Health Research Authority and NHS Digital and the ICO and national
data guardian, all of which provide guidance on how to apply for, and conduct
research using patient data.

Ideas for health research from this data are welcomed.
