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 <i>Health Survey for England, 2004</i> (HSE 2004) was designed to provide data at both national and regional level about the population living in private households in England. The sample design of the 2004 survey had two parts: a general population sample that followed the same pattern as in previous years and a minority ethnic 'boost' sample (for the groups covered, see above). <br> <br> The general population sample was half the size of the usual sample. Up to ten adults and up to two children in each household were interviewed, and a nurse visit arranged for those participants in minority ethnic groups who consented. For the ethnic boost sample, all sampled addresses were fully screened and only informants from the specified minority ethnic groups were eligible for inclusion in the survey. Among these, up to four adults and three children were selected for interview. For informants from the specified minority ethnic groups (whether identified in the general population sample or the minority ethnic sample), an interview with each eligible person was followed by a nurse visit.<br> <br> Information was obtained directly from persons aged 13 and over. Information about children under 13 was obtained from a parent with the child present. The survey was conducted throughout the year to take into consideration seasonal differences.<br> <br> For the second edition (April 2010), three new children's Body Mass Index (BMI) variables have been added to the general population and ethnic boost data files (bmicat1, bmicat2, bmicat3). The original variables (bmicut, bmicut2, bmicut3) are unreliable and should not be used. Further information is available in the documentation and on the Information Centre for Health and Social Care <a href=" http://www.ic.nhs.uk/statistics-and-data-collections/health-and-lifestyles-related-surveys/health-survey-for-england" title "Health Survey for England" >Health Survey for England</a> web page.<br> <B>Main Topics</B>:<BR> The main focus of HSE 2004 for adults from minority ethnic backgrounds was cardiovascular disease (CVD) and related risk factors. In addition to the core HSE topics, a module on complementary therapies and alternative medicine was also included in the main individual questionnaire. <br> <br> At the nurse visit, questions were asked about prescribed medication, vitamin supplements and nicotine replacements. The nurse took the blood pressure of those aged five and over, measured lung function of those aged 7-15, and made waist and hip measurements for those aged 11 and over. Saliva samples were collected from 4-15 year olds and blood samples from those aged 11 and over, including fasting blood from those aged 16 and over. Blood and saliva samples were sent to a laboratory for analysis.<br> <br> Informants in the general population sample, unless they were members of the specified minority ethnic groups, were given a shortened version of the questionnaire covering core topics only.<br> <br> <br> Standard Measures<ul><li>General Health Questionnaire (GHQ12)</li><li>EQ-5D Health State</li></ul>
