Further information

and thanks to Ian

Danielle,

FYI, some clarification from MHRA below:

 

 

Dear Ian,

 

Thank you for your message.  I do apologise for the delay in replying.

 

I will forward your enquiry to colleagues who are better placed to provide you with the guidance you are seeking and ask them to respond accordingly.

 

In the meantime, I can clarify that the issue relates to the embedding of the QRISK calculator in the software system of a single supplier to GP practices – SystemOne supplied by TPP.

 

Our advice to GPs/clinicians is that the QRISK2 Calculator on the ClinRisk website is not affected by this issue and can be used if necessary.  Therefore we have not, to date, required any message to be placed on the QRISK2 website.

 

The issue does not relate to any other risk calculator or software system.

 

For your information, there is now a TPP news piece on the MHRA GOV.UK website, which includes a link to the alert that was sent to GPs.

 

Kind regards,

Mike.

Dear Mr Dykes,

The message which has gone out today (below) is not very helpful.  As we have not been told anything about the nature of the problem, could we please have some guidance as to:

• Who the ‘limited group of patients’ are?
• Which  patients might need to be re-assessed.

 

 There is no message on the QRISK2 website about this;  should there be?
