  4. Stroke and ischaemic attack: blood pressure (80 years and over) (IND244)

    This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged 80 years or over with a history of stroke or TIA in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 145/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 150/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM228

  5. Stroke and ischaemic attack: blood pressure (79 years and under) (IND243)

    This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged 79 years or under with a history of stroke or TIA in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 135/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 140/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM227

  6. Endovascular closure of atrial septal defect (HTG58)

    Evidence-based recommendations on endovascular closure of atrial septal defect. This involves inserting a small blocking device into the heart, which is gently inflated to close the hole.

  7. Lead-I ECG devices for detecting symptomatic atrial fibrillation using single time point testing in primary care (HTG508)

    Evidence-based recommendations on lead-I electrocardiogram (ECG) devices (imPulse, Kardia Mobile, MyDiagnostick and Zenicor-ECG) for detecting symptomatic atrial fibrillation using single time point testing in primary care.

  8. Subarachnoid haemorrhage caused by a ruptured aneurysm: diagnosis and management (NG228)

    This guideline covers diagnosing and treating an aneurysmal (caused by a ruptured aneurysm) subarachnoid haemorrhage and its complications. It provides recommendations to improve diagnosis and ensure that the most effective treatments are offered. It includes guidance on follow-up care and information for people (aged 16 and over) who have had an aneurysmal subarachnoid haemorrhage, their families and carers.

  9. ReStore Soft Exo-Suit for gait rehabilitation (MIB239)

    NICE has developed a medtech innovation briefing (MIB) on ReStore Soft Exo-Suit for gait rehabilitation .

  10. KardiaMobile for detecting atrial fibrillation (HTG606)

    Evidence-based recommendations on KardiaMobile for detecting atrial fibrillation.

  11. Coil embolisation of ruptured intracranial aneurysms (HTG64)

    Evidence-based recommendations on coil embolisation of ruptured intracranial aneurysms. This involves passing a thin tube through the body to place coils inside the aneurysm.

  12. Spectra Optia for automatic red blood cell exchange in people with sickle cell disease (HTG405)

    Evidence-based recommendations on Spectra Optia for automated red blood cell exchange in people with sickle cell disease.

  13. Atrial fibrillation: review of anticoagulation (IND169)

    This indicator covers the percentage of patients with atrial fibrillation, currently treated with an anticoagulant, who have had a review in the preceding 12 months which included: assessment of stroke/VTE risk; assessment of bleeding risk; assessment of renal function, creatinine clearance, FBC and LFTs as appropriate for their anticoagulation therapy; any adverse effects related to anticoagulation; assessment of compliance; choice of anticoagulant. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM147

  14. Pipeline Flex embolisation device with Shield Technology for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms (HTG287)

    Evidence-based recommendations on the Pipeline Flex embolisation device with Shield Technology for the treatment of complex intracranial aneurysms.
