1 PRIMHD Summary Report – HONOSCA Health of the Nation Outcomes Scales – Child and youth report for New Zealand This report summarises Programme for the Integration of Mental Health Data (PRIMHD) data submitted by your district health board (DHB). In particular, it presents Health of the National Outcomes Scale (HoNOSCA) data from services in which HoNOSCA is the primary measure. This report is organised into three major sections that provide information about: 1. Collection completion and validity: This details the completeness of the data set provided by your mental health services. This is important because it indicates how valid and reliable the data sets are likely to be. The less complete the data set, the less valid the information is likely to be. 2. Outcomes-related information: This provides indications about what changes have occurred for service users between entering and leaving the service. Outcome is assessed by comparing the group admitted and the group discharged from the service in the same time period. This should provide a reasonable indication of outcomes achieved unless the service user mix has changed significantly over the usual period for which service is delivered. 3. Service-related information: This provides information about the services, such as the overall severity of service users who use different services. In many cases the data is presented graphically for New Zealand, and then presented as a table for the individual team types. The time period covered differs for the different data presented. See the title or the notes under the graphs or tables for information about the time period covered. Unless otherwise stated, the notes under the graphs also apply to the corresponding table. For all graphs and tables, if there are less than twenty cases in the data set, then the information is not presented. This is because small samples frequently provide inaccurate and potentially misleading results. See the notes and user guide for other important information about the graphs and tables. Where appropriate, the statistical confidence interval is presented. This is shown by error bars (small lines above and below the average) on the graphs, and a score range in some tables. As a rule of thumb, if the confidence intervals of two data points do not overlap, the two points can be considered to be significantly different. If the confidence intervals of the data points do overlap, we assume the points are not significantly different. It is important to note that statistical significance may not indicate a clinically significantly difference. See the associated user guide for more information about how to understand and use the data presented in this report. Data for graphs and tables 1 and 2 was extracted 4 July 2013 from PRIMHD by the Ministry of Health and formatted by Te Pou. The data for graphs and tables 3 to 12 was extracted 5 July 2013 from PRIMHD by the Ministry of Health, then analysed and formatted by Te Pou.

PRIMHD Summary Report – HONOSCA

Health of the Nation Outcomes Scales – Child and youth report

for New Zealand

This report summarises Programme for the Integration of Mental Health Data (PRIMHD) data submitted by your

district health board (DHB). In particular, it presents Health of the National Outcomes Scale (HoNOSCA) data from

services in which HoNOSCA is the primary measure.

This report is organised into three major sections that provide information about:

1. Collection completion and validity: This details the completeness of the data set provided by your mental

health services. This is important because it indicates how valid and reliable the data sets are likely to be. The

less complete the data set, the less valid the information is likely to be.

2. Outcomes-related information: This provides indications about what changes have occurred for service

users between entering and leaving the service. Outcome is assessed by comparing the group admitted and

the group discharged from the service in the same time period. This should provide a reasonable indication

of outcomes achieved unless the service user mix has changed significantly over the usual period for which

service is delivered.

3. Service-related information: This provides information about the services, such as the overall severity of

service users who use different services.

In many cases the data is presented graphically for New Zealand, and then presented as a table for the individual

team types.

The time period covered differs for the different data presented. See the title or the notes under the graphs or tables

for information about the time period covered. Unless otherwise stated, the notes under the graphs also apply to the

corresponding table.

For all graphs and tables, if there are less than twenty cases in the data set, then the information is not presented. This

is because small samples frequently provide inaccurate and potentially misleading results. See the notes and user

guide for other important information about the graphs and tables.

Where appropriate, the statistical confidence interval is presented. This is shown by error bars (small lines above and

below the average) on the graphs, and a score range in some tables. As a rule of thumb, if the confidence intervals of

two data points do not overlap, the two points can be considered to be significantly different. If the confidence

intervals of the data points do overlap, we assume the points are not significantly different. It is important to note

that statistical significance may not indicate a clinically significantly difference. See the associated user guide for

more information about how to understand and use the data presented in this report.

Data for graphs and tables 1 and 2 was extracted 4 July 2013 from PRIMHD by the Ministry of Health and formatted

by Te Pou. The data for graphs and tables 3 to 12 was extracted 5 July 2013 from PRIMHD by the Ministry of Health,

then analysed and formatted by Te Pou.

1. Collection completion and validity

This section presents information about the completeness and validity of the data on which the remainder of this report

is based. It also shows the current targets for the variables presented.

Graph 1: Percentage of service users with at least one collection during the period, New

Zealand, Oct-Dec 2012 and Jan-Mar 2013 (4-17 years)

Notes: Community compliance is affected by crisis teams doing triage/brief assessment type activity which is not a

comprehensive assessment. Interpretation: The longer the dark part of the bar, the more completely the data set includes all

service users, and the more meaningful and representative the graphs, tables, and analyses using these data will be. The data is

approximate due to movements of service users between teams and similar variations; however it does provide a reasonably

accurate representation of completion of measures. The data includes both valid and invalid collections. Target: To meet or

exceed the target shown on the graph for the percentage of service users with at least one collection within the period.

Graph 2: Percentage of service users with admission and discharge collections completed, New

Zealand, Jan-Mar 2013 (4-17 years)

Notes: Community compliance is affected by crisis teams doing triage/brief assessment type activity which is not a

comprehensive assessment. Interpretation: The longer the dark bar, the larger the percentage of admissions/discharges that had

the relevant data collection type. The data is approximate due to movements of service users between teams and similar

variations; however it does provide a reasonably accurate representation of completion of measures. The data include both valid

and invalid collections.

Graph 3: Percentage of valid collections, HoNOSCA, New Zealand, Apr 2012 - Mar 2013

Notes: Valid = Two or fewer of the 15 items scored as unknown or missing. Discharges exclude collection types for lost to care,

discharge dead and brief episode of care. Drug and Alcohol teams are excluded as not required be collected. Interpretation: The

longer the dark lines, the higher the percentage of valid scores. Target: Aim for 95% valid collections.

Notes: % invalid collections = the percentage of collections that had three or more of the 15 items scored as unknown or missing. Number of invalid ratings by HoNOSCA item = for each of the

HoNOSCA items, the number of collections for which that item was unknown or missing. Discharges exclude collection types for lost to care, deceased and brief episode of care. Drug and

Alcohol teams are excluded as not required be collected. Interpretation: The lower the % invalid, the higher the percentage of valid scores. The lower the number of invalid collections by

HoNOSCA item, the more collections that have valid data on that HoNOSCA item. Target: Aim for 95% valid collections (5% invalid collections) or better. Aim for as few invalid items as

possible, with all items having a similar validity rate.

2. Outcomes – changes in service user status

This section presents HoNOSCA data indicating the status of service users at different stages of their contact with the

DHB mental health services. Initial pages show results from HoNOSCA total scores. Following pages show results related

to the percentage of HoNOSCA items in the clinical range. The final pages in this section show results from the Index of

Severity derived from HoNOSCA scores.

Graph 4: Average HoNOSCA total score (15 items) by collection type, New Zealand, Apr

2012 - Mar 2013

Notes: Error bars indicate the confidence intervals around the data point. If error bars overlap, the data points are not

significantly different. Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: Decrease

between admission and discharge is an indication of the outcomes achieved by the service user and service. The greater the

decrease between admission and discharge, and the lower the average HoNOSCA score at discharge, the more positive the

outcome. Target: A greater decrease from admission to discharge and lower average rating at discharge.

Notes: N = number of collections in period. Average = average HoNOSCA (15 item) score, CI = confidence interval for average score. Community discharge does not include discharges to an

inpatient unit. Interpretation: If confidence intervals for two scores do not overlap, then the scores are statistically significantly different. It is important to note that statistical significance may

not indicate a clinically significant difference.

Graph 5: Average number of clinically significant HoNOSCA items by collection type, New

Zealand, Apr 2012 - Mar 2013

Notes: Average number clinically significant items = the average number of items in the clinical range (2, 3 or 4) per

collection. Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: Points are significantly

different if error bars don’t overlap. Decrease between admission and discharge is an indication of the outcomes achieved

by the service and service user. A greater decrease between admission and discharge indicates a better outcome. Lower

admission score could be indication of service users seeking out and being engaged by services at a lower level of severity.

Target: A greater decrease from admission to discharge and smaller percentage in clinical range at discharge.

Notes: N = Number of collections in period. Average = average number of HoNOSCA items in the clinically significant range (i.e. scoring 2, 3, or 4), CI = confidence interval for average score.

Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: If confidence intervals for two scores do not overlap, then the scores are statistically significantly different.

Please note that statistical significance may not indicate a clinically significant difference.

Notes: Average number of HoNOSCA items in the clinical range (2, 3 or 4). Community discharge does not include discharges

to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: Points are significantly different if error bars don’t overlap. Decrease between admission

and discharge is an indication of the outcomes achieved by the service and service user. A greater decrease between admission

and discharge indicates a better outcome. Lower admission score could be indication of service users seeking out and being

engaged by services at a lower level of acuity. Target: A greater decrease from admission to discharge and smaller percentage in

clinical range at discharge.

Notes: Percentage of service users in the clinical range (2, 3 or 4) for each HoNOSCA items. Community discharge does not

include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: The longer the bar, the more prevalent the difficulty measured by the

item is amongst service users. A greater decrease in the length of the bar from admission to discharge suggests a better outcome

for the difficulty measured by the item. Items that show medium – high frequency and less change may suggest possible targets

for service improvement. Target: A greater decrease from admission to discharge and smaller percentage in clinical range at

discharge.

Notes: Percentage of service users in the clinical range (2, 3 or 4) for each HoNOSCA items. Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: The higher the

percentage, the more prevalent the difficulty measured by the item is amongst service users. A greater decrease between admission to discharge suggests a better outcome for the difficulty

measured by the item. Items that show medium – high frequency and less change may suggest possible targets for service improvement. Target: A greater decrease from admission to discharge

and smaller percentage in clinical range at discharge.

collections), New Zealand, Apr 2012 - Mar 2013

Notes: Percentage of service users in the clinical range (2, 3 or 4) for each HoNOSCA items on review collections. Due to most

admission being less than 90 days, the data set for review collections in inpatient settings is relatively small. Interpretation: The

longer the bar, the more prevalent the difficulty measured by the item is amongst service users.

Graph 8: Index of severity ratings for HoNOSCA by collection type, New Zealand, Apr 2012 - Mar

2013

Notes: Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Index of Severity: sub-clinical = all items <2, mild

= at least one item > 1 and all items <3, moderate = at least one item >=3, severe = at least 2 items >=3 using first 13 items.

Community discharge does not include discharges to an inpatient unit. Interpretation: Darker bars indicate higher overall level

of severity. More positive outcome shown by larger decrease in darker sections of bar between admission and discharge.

Notes: Only data related to collection at admission and review is included so that results reflect the severity of service users

during their engagement with the service. Index of Severity: sub-clinical = all items <2, mild = at least one item > 1 and all items

<3, moderate = at least one item >=3, severe = at least 2 items >=3 using first 13 items. Interpretation: This graph gives an

impression of the overall severity of the caseload for different teams at admission. The longer the darker bar, the higher the

overall severity of the team’s caseload.

Graph 10: Collections with no HoNOSCA items in clinical range, New Zealand, Apr 2012 - Mar

2013

Notes: Includes admission and review collections. Shows percentage of service users with all HoNOSCA items less than 2, i.e. no

HoNOSCA items in the clinical range. National average = this is the equivalent value for all DHBs by setting. Interpretation:

There are a variety of reasons that may make it appropriate for service users to remain in the service even though they show no

HoNOSCA items in the clinical range. However, teams showing larger/substantial percentage of service users with no

HoNOSCA items in the clinical range could benefit from reviewing these cases to ensure that the service remains appropriate for

this service user.
