Exploitation, integration and statistical analysis of the Public Health Database and STEMI Archive in the Lombardia region

  • Chapter
Complex Data Modeling and Computationally Intensive Statistical Methods

Part of the book series: Contributions to Statistics ((CONTRIB.STAT.))

Abstract

We describe the nature and aims of the Strategic Program “Exploitation, integration and study of current and future health databases in Lombardia for Acute Myocardial Infarction”. The main goal of the Programme is the construction and statistical analysis of data coming from the integration of complex clinical and administrative databases concerning patients with Acute Coronary Syndromes treated in the Lombardia region. Clinical data sets arise from observational studies about specific diseases, while administrative data arise from standardised and on-going procedures of data collection. The linkage between clinical and administrative databases enables the Lombardia region to create an efficient global system for collecting and storing integrated longitudinal data, to check them, to guarantee their quality and to study them from a statistical perspective.
