Heart: National Adult Cardiac Surgery Audit

Part of the National Cardiac Audit Programme (NCAP), the audit aims to reduce mortality and improve outcomes for patients undergoing adult cardiac surgery. It reports comparative data on all major heart operations carried out on NHS patients in the UK.

On 24 June 2022, the NICOR cardiac audits transitioned to NHS Arden & GEM Commissioning Support Unit. As HQIP is no longer the commissioner or data controller for the NICOR cardiac audits, please contact the NICOR team directly if you have any queries about the transition of the cardiac audits.

Should you require any assistance on the progress of your data access application please contact the NICOR data sharing inbox ([email protected]) and copy in Arden & GEM (on [email protected].
