Section 1 Northern Territory hospital alcohol-related harm indicators, definitions and limitations

Indicators currently in use for hospital admissions

Definition

Use principal diagnosis only.

Two data streams:

1.Wholly alcohol-attributable conditions

2.A composite indicator that combines:

a.Wholly alcohol-attributable conditions

and

b.Conditions for which all subgroups have a population attributable fraction (PAF) of 40% or greater.

Hospital admissions reporting and analysis

  • Admissions are only counted for persons aged 15 years and over
  • PAF are applied to aggregate number of admissions for each condition
  • Count of admissions and age standardised population rates by:
  • Indigenous/non-Indigenous
  • Sex
  • Top End /Central Australia regions of the Northern Territory
  • Each data point consist of a three month period
  • Data presented over 10 years to allow assessment of trend.

Indicators currently in use for hospital emergency department (ED) presentations

Definition

Use a combination of presenting problem as entered by triage nurse and principal diagnosis as entered by medical officer. Count as alcohol-related presentation if either the recording of a presenting problem or the principal diagnosis reveals an alcohol-related condition for:

  1. Wholly alcohol-related conditions
  2. A composite indicator that combines:

a.Wholly alcohol-related conditions

and

b.Conditions for which all subgroups have a population attributable fraction (PAF) of 40% or greater for corresponding hospital admissions codes.

ED presentations reporting and analysis

  • Presentations are only counted for persons aged 15 years and over
  • All presentations are counted as one presentation. The PAF is not applied to adjust the number of presentations
  • Alcohol-related presentations and total number of all presentations by:
  • Indigenous/non-Indigenous
  • Sex
  • All Northern Territory hospitals and all hospitals combined
  • Each data point consists of a three month period
  • Data presented for all available data to allow assessment of trend.

Data limitations

Alcohol-attributable hospital admissions

Hospital admissions are coded using International Classification of Disease version 10 (ICD-10-AM) by professional coders, providing a reliable foundation for reporting. International studies have developed a series of attributable fractions for health conditions related to alcohol. These measures have not been validated specifically in the NT and there are likely to be some notable differences, however their use provides a picture of alcohol-attributable NT hospital admissions and a useful comparative measure with other jurisdictions.

Alcohol-related emergency department presentations

There is no universal coding and classification system for emergency department (ED) presentations. A standardised subset of ICD-10-AM codes is used in the NT to allow consistent analysis of ED data for all hospitals. Comparison with other states and territories is not available.

A major advantage of ED presentation data is that it is available almost in real time. A major disadvantage is that ED coding is undertaken at the time of presentation and medical officers are only required to record the principal diagnosis - the major diagnosis for which the patient is treated. This may or may not reflect an alcohol-related contribution.

There is the capacity to record secondary diagnoses in the ED dataset, though in practice this is not a treatment priority and adherence to the practice varies between individuals and hospitals. Inconsistency in ED data collection means there is no national or international basis on which to develop the attributable fractions approach used for hospital admissions.

Section 2 Alcohol-attributable hospital admissions, Northern Territory hospitals, 2004-2014

Time period: 2004 to the third quarter (Q3) of 2014.

Routine standard indicators reported:

  • Rates of hospital admission for 100% alcohol-attributable conditions, for the Northern Territory Top End region
  • Rates of hospital admission for 100% alcohol-attributable conditions, for the Northern Territory Central Australia region
  • Rates of hospital admission for 40% or greater alcohol-attributable conditions, for the Northern Territory Top End region
  • Rates of hospital admissions for 40% or greater alcohol-attributable conditions, for the Northern Territory Central Australia region.

Section 3 Alcohol-related emergency department (ED) presentations, Northern Territory hospitals, 2005-2014

Time period: 2005 to 2014.

Routine standard indicators reported:

  • All ED presentations
  • Composite (wholly and partially) alcohol-related ED presentations
  • Wholly alcohol-related ED presentations.
