Details

The AAA minimum dataset dictionary contains a list of the information required for the operation of the NHS AAA screening programme and for reporting on screening data.

Public Health England uses this dataset to specify what fields the screening software database must contain as a minimum.

The dataset can be used by researchers when developing proposals to identify which fields they require and what permissions they would need to access the data.

This publication includes:

  • the AAA minimum dataset dictionary
  • a guide for using the dictionary
