Angina and coronary heart disease: blood pressure (79 years and under) (IND241)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged 79 years or under with coronary heart disease in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 135/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 140/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM225
This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged 80 years or over with hypertension in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 145/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 150/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM224
Pregnancy and neonates: planned caesarean after 39 weeks (IND24)
This indicator covers the proportion of pregnant women having a planned caesarean section who have the procedure carried out at or after 39 weeks 0 days. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as CCG37
This indicator covers the percentage of patients aged 79 years or under with hypertension in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 135/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 140/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM223
This indicator covers the establishing and maintaining of a register of patients aged 18 or over with a BMI of 27.5 kg/m2 or more (or 30 kg/m2 or more if ethnicity is recorded as White) in the preceding 12 months. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM222
This indicator covers the establishing and maintaining of a register of patients aged 18 or over with a BMI of 23 kg/m2 or more (or 25 kg/m2 or more if ethnicity is recorded as White) in the preceding 12 months.

Kidney conditions: CKD and blood pressure when ACR less than 70 (IND235)
This indicator covers the percentage of patients on the CKD register and with an albumin to creatinine ratio (ACR) of less than 70 mg/mmol, without moderate or severe frailty, in whom the last blood pressure reading (measured in the preceding 12 months) is less than 135/85 mmHg if using ambulatory or home monitoring, or less than 140/90 mmHg if monitored in clinic. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM217
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with a new diagnosis of CKD stage G3a-G5 (on the register, within the preceding 12 months) who had eGFR and ACR (urine albumin to creatinine ratio) measurements recorded within 90 days before or after diagnosis. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM216
This indicator covers the percentage of patients with a new diagnosis of CKD stage G3a–G5 (on the register, within the preceding 12 months) who had eGFR measured on at least 2 occasions separated by at least 90 days, and the second test within 90 days before the diagnosis. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM215.
This indicator covers the percentage of patients (excluding those on the CKD register) prescribed long-term (chronic) oral non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) who have had an eGFR measurement in the preceding 12 months. It measures outcomes that reflect the quality of care or processes linked by evidence to improved outcomes. This indicator was previously published as NM214.
Kidney conditions: CKD and lipid lowering therapies (IND231)
