Trends for the national Key Performance Indicators in this report are calculated as a linear trend of comparable periods, including both the June and December collection periods. December data points are not shown in Table 1 but are available in the Data tables accompanying this report.
Of the 23 measures presented in Table 1, 3 have improved, 5 have had no (or limited) change, 10 have not improved, and trends for 5 cannot be calculated (for example because not enough comparable periods are available to calculate a trend).
Trends for collection periods from June 2020 onwards have been affected by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially the process-of-care indicators. See Summary for more information on the impact of COVID-19. See also Technical notes for more information on interpreting changes over time, and Interpreting nKPI data for more information on changes to indicator specifications.
