1 ND ref. FOI/16/244 Freedom of Information Thank you for your 01/08/16 request for the following information: Under the Freedom of Information Act, please could you provide me with an extract from the hospital episode data for every admission where the external cause was an animal for 2015 and 2016 to date, including: The date of the admission. The age of the person injured. The specie of the animal that caused the injury. The variety/breed of the animal that caused the injury. A description of the injury. If the injury was fatal. (Yes or No) Including but not limited to incident that were logged under the following codes: W53 - Bitten by rat W54 - Bitten or struck by dog W55 - Bitten or struck by other mammals W56 - Contact with marine animal W57 - Bitten or stung by nonvenomous insect and other nonvenomous arthropods W58 - Bitten or struck by crocodile or alligator W59 - Bitten or crushed by other reptiles X20 - Contact with venomous snakes and lizards X21 - Contact with venomous spiders X23 - Contact with hornets X25 - Contact with other specified venomous arthropods X26 - Contact with venomous marine animals and plants X27 - Contact with other specified venomous animals X28 - Contact with other specified venomous plants X29 - Contact with unspecified venomous animal or plant If it is easier/quicker to send the full data that would include the information listed above instead, please do that. Please provide the information as a spreadsheet or CSV. Answer: Please see table below. Please note: Inpatient diagnosis information for attacks, bites, stings, strikes, etc., by admission year, month in year and patient s age. Admission remarks were checked but no breed type information is available. None of the admissions were fatal. In accordance with the Data Protection Act 1998 we are unable to provide figures where the number of patients is less than or equal to five and could risk the identification of those patients. In these cases 5 is used to indicate that a figure between 1 and 5 is being suppressed. Also note that if only one cell required suppression, at least one other number has been suppressed to avoid calculation of suppressed values from the totals. In addition ages have been banded to avoid the risk of patient identification. Page 1 of 5

2 This follows HSCIC analysis guidance (2014) which states that small numbers within local authorities, wards, postcode districts, CCG s providers and Trusts may allow identification of patients and should not be published. Page 2 of 5
