The household data file is no longer released for analysis. In addition, users may see other changes; for example only grouped age is now available instead of single year of age. NHS Digital have issued the following statement on changes to the HSE from 2015:<br> <br> "NHS Digital has recently reviewed how we manage access to survey datasets. In doing this we have sought to strike a balance between protecting the privacy of individuals and enabling maximum use of these valuable, publicly funded data collections. We have thoroughly reviewed our disclosure control measures, including taking advice from experts at the Office of National Statistics. The result is that additional disclosure control measures have been applied to the 2015 survey [onwards] to enable a suitable dataset to be made available through the UK Data Service via end user licence. This involved providing less detail on some aspects, such as geographical classifications, ethnicity and household relationships. To provide greater protection of the answers of children and adults within households it is not possible to identify people within the same household on this dataset, however parent/guardian derived variables appended to their children (if they have any) have been added to enable some intra‐household analysis.”</p> <p><br> It is hoped that a second dataset with more detail including family and household relationships will be made available via Special Licence. In the meantime, researchers who want to do analysis of health and behaviours within families or households, and the derived intra-household variables do not meet your needs, are advised to register their interest for a more detailed dataset with NatCen Social Research and provide information about their proposed research and which data they want.</p> The focus for the HSE 2014 was mental health. The survey also provided updates on core topics including smoking, drinking and general health. Additional topics covered are listed below.<br> <br> <b>Latest edition information</b><br> For the third edition (February 2018), variable VisMon (Date of nurse interview, month) has been added to the individual data file. <br> <br> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> Data collection involved an interview, followed by a visit from a specially trained nurse for all those in the core sample who agreed. The nurse visit covered height and weight measures, blood pressure measurement, waist and hip circumferencemeasurement, taking of blood samples for cholesterol and glycated haemoglobin, and taking of adult and child saliva samples. <br> <br> Question modules covered general health, longstanding illness, social care, doctor-diagnosed hypertension, smoking, alcohol drinking (heaviest day in last week), consent to data linkage (NHS central register, HES), socio-economic information and prescribed medications (nurse questionnaire). Additional topics included for 2014 were mental health, hearing, physical activity (adults and children), sexual health, eyesight, average weekly alcohol consumption, well-being (Warwick-Edinburgh Mental Well-being Scale), fruit and vegetable consumption, end of life care and use of services.
