  7. Traffic Lights 5 out of 18 intermediate datazones emerged with most red and amber lights • Devenick and Findon (IZ059) • Mearns North and Inverbervie (IZ050) • Mearns and Laurencekirk (IZ049) • Stonehaven South (IZ051) • East Cairngorms (IZ056) Road traffic accidents and unintentional Injuries are only 2 indictors that are consistently poorer than Scottish Average.

QOF Findings • Unsurprisingly chronic diseases more prevalent in practices with older popn primarily in Marr. • Obesity is only condition where all practices had worse prevalence rate than Scottish average • Practices with younger popn profile had lowest prevalence rates (Skene , Portlethen) • Rates of Chronic kidney disease & atrial fibrilation higher than Scottish average in 8 and 7 practices respectively – even in younger to middle age popn (Laurencekirk, Inverbervie and Banchory) • Asthma is worse / similar than Scottish Average in K&M practices, all Deeside practices have better than Scottish average.

  12. Summary Findings • QOF evidences higher levels disease in Deeside area but not evidenced in Health and Wellbeing Traffic Lights, reflects older popn. • Health inequalities showing up along coastal strip. Where both QOF and Health and Wellbeing profiles showing levels of chronic disease where popn younger to middle aged. • East Cairncorms area also showing in both QOF and QOF and Health and Wellbeing profiles , suggesting health inequalities.
