Description
The Scottish Health Survey aims to provide reliable and representative information on the health of people living in Scotland that cannot be obtained from other sources. The principal focus of the survey is cardiovascular disease and related risk factors. The survey first ran in 1995, then again in 1998, 2003 and continuously since 2008. Currently, approximately 4,800 adults and 1,800 children participate in the survey each year. The survey is designed to produce national estimates every year and NHS Board level estimates every four years.
The topics covered by the survey include: general health, mental wellbeing, alcohol consumption, smoking, diet patterns, obesity, long-term conditions, respiratory health, problem gambling, dental health and physical activity. The survey includes physical and biological measurements, including height, weight and waist circumference measurements (used to detect risk of obesity related disease), a saliva sample (used to detect salivary cotinine levels), a urine sample (used to detect dietary salt intake) and blood pressure (used to detect undiagnosed hypertension Biological measurements are taken from a sub-sample of approximately 1,000 adults per year, while physical (height and weight) measurements cover the full sample. Data from the survey are linked to medical health records for consenting participants.
