The REAL (Real World Evidence Alliance at Leeds) team collaborates with Leeds Teaching Hospitals Trust (LTHT) and commercial and academic partners. We aim to improve healthcare globally using data, technology, analytics, and expertise. The collaboration provides LTHT with the technical and staffing support to analyse patient data and produce scientific research. The results of these studies can help shape and improve patient care in the future.
All studies comply with the hospital’s strict information governance policies. Identifiable patient data is never shared with anyone outside the hospital, and the studies do not include data from patients who have opted out of data sharing. The reports resulting from our studies have been presented at national and international conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals.
