In the meantime, if you would like access to these sooner, you can visit the Subscribers Hub (https://www.primarycareit.co.uk/searches/) on the website to download and import them. Guidance on the searches can also be found here. You will need to be logged into the website to access this.
If you have any queries regarding this please email theteam@primarycareit.co.uk or raise a support ticket.
We have noted that searches produced by system suppliers require precise coding of the valve type in order to identify patients who may be at risk of inappropriate anticoagulation. Specific valve type coding may not be universal practice so some patients may remain vulnerable due to inappropriate anticoagulation. All resources in the PCIT hub.
