Summary
The post holder will be encouraged to pursue their own interests in terms of research. Since 2010 Homerton has been contributing to the National Heart Failure Audit Project run by the National Institute for Cardiovascular Outcomes Research (NICOR). Homerton has set up its own systems for the storage and local retention of data (including ethnicity) on in-patient heart failure activity, - from which data uploads are made at appropriate intervals to NICOR. Similar data collection systems exist for other cardiac services and conditions at Homerton. These data have been used for health services research on gender and ethnic interaction in the utilisation of the RACPC, and opportunities exist for extending this approach to the primary / secondary care interface with respect to heart failure services. Other research opportunities relate to the advanced echocardiography techniques available at Homerton, and are not limited to the themes mentioned above. Applicants should have worked in hospital medicine at the appropriate level, and ideally have experience in cardiology. There is no on-call commitment for this post.
