If a prescription form includes three medicines it is counted as three prescription items. The number of items is a measure of how often a prescriber has decided to write a prescription. It is often used when we wish to look at prescriber behaviour as every prescription is an opportunity to change treatment. For vaccinations and acute treatment (for example, a short course of antibiotics) the item is also a reasonable measure of the number of courses of treatment.</p><p>GP practice counts of items are aggregated to Local Authorities based on the postcode of location of the GP practice.\"</p><h2 class=\"\">Definition of denominator</h2><p>Total of STAR PU units for practices located within the area. STAR PU are weighted units to allow comparisons adjusting for the age and sex of patients distribution of each practice.

For example: drugs for dementia are generally prescribed for older people. STAR PUs (Specific Therapeutic Group Age sex weightings Related Prescribing Units) allow more accurate and meaningful comparisons within a specific therapeutic group by taking into account the types of people who will be receiving that treatment. These have been developed to weight individual practice or organisation populations for age and sex to allow for better comparison of prescribing patterns. These figures are based on the cost or volume of prescribing within therapeutic groups rather than all prescribing. The STAR PU weightings for anti bacterials are item based, as this is more appropriate for such prescribing. These weightings should be used only for the specific therapeutic area.

This ambition is part of the monitoring arrangements for the Responsibility Deal Alcohol Network. <strong>Alcohol-related deaths</strong> can be reduced through local interventions to reduce alcohol misuse and harm.</p>\n\n<p>The proportion of disease attributable to alcohol (alcohol attributable fraction) is calculated using a relative risk (a fraction between 0 and 1) specific to each disease, age group, and sex combined with the prevalence of alcohol consumption in the population. All mortality records are extracted that contain an attributable disease and the age and sex-specific fraction applied. The results are summed into quinary age bands for the numerator and a directly standardised rate calculated using the European Standard Population. This revised indicator uses updated alcohol attributable fractions, based on new relative risks from \u2018<a href=\"https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/alcohol-attributable-fractions-for-england-an-update\">Alcohol-attributable fractions for England: an update</a>\u2019 (1) published by PHE in 2020. A detailed comparison between the 2013 and 2020 alcohol attributable fractions is available in <a href=\"https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/892879/APPEND_3-update.pdf\">Appendix 3 of the PHE report</a> (2). A consultation was also undertaken with stakeholders where the impact of the new methodology on the LAPE indicators was quantified and explored (3).</p>\n\n<p>The calculation that underlies all alcohol-related indicators has been updated to take account of the latest academic evidence and more recent alcohol-consumption figures. The result has been that the newly published mortality and admission rates are lower than those previously published. This is due to a change in methodology, mainly because <strong>alcohol consumption across the population has reduced since 2010</strong>. Therefore, the number of deaths and hospital admissions that we attribute to alcohol has reduced because in general people are drinking less today than they were when the original calculation was made.</p>\n\n<p>Figures published previously did not misrepresent the burden of alcohol based on the previous evidence \u2013 the methodology used in this update is as close as sources and data allow to the original method. Though the number of deaths and admissions attributed to alcohol each year has reduced, the direction of trend and the key inequalities due to alcohol harm remain the same. <strong>Alcohol remains a significant burden on the health of the population</strong> and the harm alcohol causes to individuals remains unchanged.</p>\n\n<p>References:</p>\n<ul>\n  <li><a href=\"https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/alcohol-attributable-fractions-for-england-an-update\">PHE (2020) Alcohol-attributable fractions for England: an update</a></li>\n  <li><a href=\"https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/892879/APPEND_3-update.pdf\">PHE (2020) Alcohol-attributable fractions for England: an update: Appendix 3</a></li>\n  <li><a href=\"https://www.gov.uk/government/consultations/proposed-changes-for-calculating-alcohol-related-mortality\">PHE (2021) Proposed changes for calculating alcohol-related mortality</a></li>\n</ul>\n\n<h2 class=\"\">Definition of numerator</h2>\n<p><strong>Deaths from alcohol-related conditions</strong> based on underlying cause of death, registered in the calendar year for all ages.

The 6 to 8 week check is a key milestone in early infant health monitoring, and breastfeeding status recorded at this point provides an important indicator of infant feeding practices and maternal health support in the early postnatal period.</p>\n\n<h2>Rationale</h2>\n<p>Breastfeeding provides significant health benefits for both infants and mothers. Increasing the percentage of newborn babies who are breastfeeding at 6 to 8 weeks is a public health priority, as it is associated with reduced risk of infection, improved developmental outcomes for infants, and long-term health benefits for mothers. Monitoring this indicator supports efforts to improve maternal and child health services and identify areas where additional support may be needed.</p>\n\n<h2>Numerator</h2>\n<p>The numerator is the <strong>number of infants at the 6 to 8 week check who are totally or partially breastfeeding</strong>. This includes both exclusively breastfed infants and those receiving a combination of breast milk and other feeds.</p>\n\n<h2>Denominator</h2>\n<p>The denominator is the <strong>number of infants due for 6 to 8 week checks</strong> within the reporting period and geographic area.</p>\n\n<h2>Caveats</h2>\n<p><strong>Birmingham values from 2016/17 to 2023/24 and the Solihull value for 2016/17 have not been published due to data quality reasons.</strong> Users should be aware that this indicator is based on observation at the point of the 6 to 8 week check, and is therefore <strong>susceptible to measurement bias</strong>.
