The Prevail study is led by Dr Sam Oddie, Consultant Neonatologist Bradford Royal Infirmary. The study will link data from the National Neonatal Research Database (NNRD) with data submitted by microbiology laboratories to PHE. The purpose is to monitor risk-adjusted rates of bloodstream infection across neonatal units in England in order to determine the generalisability of outcomes of the NIHR funded PREVAIL study (PREVenting infection with Antimicrobial Impregnated Long lines). The data will be sent to PHE where linkage with laboratory data will take place resulting in the creation of a national resource comprising NNRD data linked with the date and results of blood cultures submitted by microbiology laboratories to PHE.
