answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>Since the formation of NHS England’s Cross-System Sepsis Programme Board in 2015, good progress has been made in recognising sepsis early. The Programme Board brings together a group of front-line experts from across the health and care system to take action to improve the identification, diagnosis and management of sepsis in children, young people and adults across the National Health Service.</p><p>In September 2018, the Government launched a suspicion of sepsis dashboard. This allows hospitals to identify how many patients are admitted with a severe bacterial infection, are at risk of sepsis, to track their improvements, and supports clinicians in identifying patients who should be screened for sepsis.</p> answering member constituency Mid Bedfordshire answering member printed Ms Nadine Dorries question first answered 09/09/2019 17:18:33 answering member 1481 label Biography information for Ms Nadine Dorries

answer	answer is ministerial correction date of answer 09/09/2019 answer text <p>The Department funds health research through the National Institute for Health Research (NIHR). The NIHR welcomes funding applications for research into any aspect of human health. However, the NIHR has not conducted any research into links between head injuries sustained through sport and motor neurone disease.</p><p>It is not usual practice to ring-fence funds for particular topics or conditions. Applications are subject to peer review and judged in open competition, with awards being made on the basis of the importance of the topic to patients and health and care services, value for money and scientific quality. In all disease areas, the amount of NIHR funding depends on the volume and quality of scientific activity.</p> answering member constituency Gosport answering member printed Caroline Dinenage question first answered 09/09/2019 17:30:07 answering member 4008 label Biography information for Dame Caroline Dinenage
