This tool presents an overview of data on cardiovascular and cardiovascular related conditions of heart disease, stroke, diabetes and kidney disease. The profiles are for commissioners and health professionals when assessing the impact of cardiovascular disease on their local population and making decisions about services. They include data on mortality, hospital admissions, procedures and disease management.
Narrative profile reports are available for each clinical commissioning group (CCG) in England. To download these for a specific CCG click on the links below:
| Heart Disease | Stroke |
| Kidney Disease | Diabetes |

The profiles are created and maintained by the National Cardiovascular Intelligence Network (NCVIN).
Exact dates for updates to the profiles will be announced on the www.gov.uk statistical release calendar

NCVIN collates and produces other intelligence resources to help health professionals to make or influence decisions about local services. These resources can be found here.
New data from the 2018/19 National Diabetes Audit has been included in the diabetes domain.
Note: An error was identified for indicators based on hospital episode statistics (HES) data which gave misleading results for areas within the South East region and East Sussex. Affected areas have been suppressed or flagged to be treated with caution. Full details can be found in the caveats section of the descriptive metadata for each affected indicator.
New data from the 2018/19 Quality Outcomes Framework has been included in all profiles. Mortality data in heart disease and stroke updated to 2018. Treatment care and services provision data updated for heart, stroke and kidney disease. Treatment and care data from the National Diabetes Audit will be updated in May 2020.

New data:
Hospital admission data for heart disease and stroke updated to 2017/18 (this will vary by geography).

Removal of the Healthier Lives profiles
On December 4th 2018 the 'Healthier Lives' resource for hypertension was removed and this web address redirected to the CVD profiles. This decision was taken to reduce the significant level of duplication that existed between Healthier Lives and existing profiles, but with less functionality available for users in the former.
An additional page has been added to the diabetes narrative report. The page contains analysis regarding the achievement of care process targets, taken from the most recent National Diabetes Audit publication. Corresponding data also made available online
