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 2003 Health Survey for England (HSE03) consisted of a general population sample and was designed to provide data at both national and regional level about the population living in private households in England. All private households in the general population sample were eligible for inclusion in the survey (up to a maximum of three households per address). Up to two children aged 0-15 were interviewed in each household, as well as up to 10 adults aged 16 and over. Information was obtained directly from persons aged 13 and over. Information about children under 13 was obtained from a parent with the child present.<br> <br> An interview with each eligible person was followed by a nurse visit both using computer-assisted interviewing. At one sixth of the selected addresses the nurse visit was extended to include additional procedures. 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 individual data file (bmicat1, bmicat2, bmicat3). 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>
In 2003 the major focus of the survey was cardiovascular disease and related risk factors. Key modules covered cardiovascular disease (including questions about symptoms, diagnosed illness and use of services), and adult physical activity. Core questions covered smoking, drinking, psycho-social health (GHQ12), fruit and vegetable consumption, social support and social capital.<br> <br> The nurse visit was split into two sample types, standard and long. The standard nurse visit collected blood pressure measurements, saliva samples, waist and hip measurements and non-fasting blood samples. At one sixth of the selected addresses the nurse visit was extended to include a fasting blood sample (from those aged 35 and over) and a spot urine sample (from adults aged 16 and over).<br> <br> Standard Measures<br> <li>General Health Questionnaire (GHQ12)</li><br> <li>EQ-5D Health State.</li><br> <br>
