This practice contributes to the Clinical Practice Research Datalink (CPRD)
Information in patient records is important for medical research to develop new treatments and test the safety of medicines. This practice supports medical research by sending some of the information patient records to the CPRD. CPRD is a Government organisation that provides anonymised patient data for research to improve patient and public health. You cannot be identified from the information sent to the CPRD. If you do not want anonymised information from your patient record to be used in research you can opt out by speaking to the Practice Manager. For more information about the importance of medical research resulting from sharing anonymised patient data, please visit the following website: www.cprd.com/public or get in touch with the CPRD.
