Data quality checks

This report shows records entered by NPID system users at your hospital that have an unlikely (but not impossible) combination of date entries. To improve data quality we ask you check that the relevant dates have been entered correctly for any records that appear on this report. The checks are:

• pregnancy ended 7 days over – the pregnancy end date was between 7 and 21 days after the estimated delivery date
• estimated same as entered – the estimated delivery date is the same as the date that the pregnancy data was entered
• live birth before 24 weeks – the outcome was recorded as a live birth but the gestation as calculated from the estimated delivery date and pregnancy end date was less than 24 weeks 
• miscarriage After 24 weeks – the outcome was recorded as a miscarriage but the gestation as calculated from the estimated delivery date and pregnancy end date was more than 24 weeks

The conditions for records to be included in this report are the same as those for the patient view report.

This report shows records entered by NPID system users at your hospital for which pregnancy data has been entered, and either 

• the pregnancy outcome data is still to be completed, or
• the pregnancy outcome data has been completed for a live birth and the ‘alive at 28 days’ check has still to be completed. The final column indicates where 28 days have passed since the pregnancy end date for a live birth, so the ‘alive at 28 days’ check is due for completion

The conditions for records to be included in this report are the same as those for the patient view report

This is a count of pregnancies with a recorded pregnancy outcome for which

1. A user at your hospital entered the pregnancy data (for pregnancies ending on or before 31 December) or

2. Your hospital is entered as the booking hospital (for pregnancies ending on or after 1 January [the following year]).
