Self Service PortalAbout Endeavour Predict
A community interest company providing risk prediction algorithms, web calculators, and health informatics tools, with all surplus reinvested into Endeavour Health Charitable Trust's mission to predict and prevent ill-health.
About Endeavour Health
Endeavour Predict is a community interest company primarily established to predict,anticipate, or inform individual health needs. EP achieves this by the provision of technical products and services that provide personalised information, including:
- Prediction algorithms in the form of multi-language software components for use within health management systems.
- Web calculators that enable people to obtain personalised information about risks to themselves, or for use by health professionals as part of a discussion with their patients
- Information management web applications, including an ontology server, a data modeller, and query libraries for use by health informaticians, researchers and system suppliers.
- Web APIs to enable computers to retrieve information and data automatically.
Endeavour Health Charitable Trust was gifted the former ClinRisk Ltd in August 2023. Endeavour is the sole owner of the company.
For two decades ClinRisk specialised in medical software to implement risk prediction algorithms for use in clinical care.
Endeavour Health Charitable Trust created the Endeavour Predict Community Interest Company, to continue the work of ClinRisk and to use all surplus (monies above the cost of running the operation) to support the purpose of the Charity (https://www.endeavourhealth.org) to invest in further research and tools to help predict and prevent ill-health for all.
The charity funds projects that are designed to enable new, or improved, healthcare services.
What is Endeavour Predict best known for?
Best known for its implementation of the QRISK®2 and QRISK®3 heart disease algorithms, now used in over 95% of UK GP surgeries.
QRisk®4
Provides individualised patient risk of Heart disease.
QRisk®3
Provides individualised patient risk of Heart disease.
QRisk®2
Provides individualised patient risk of Heart disease.
Endeavour Predict CIC is also responsible for other risk scores, including QDiabetes®, QKidney®, QFracture®, QCancer®, QStroke®, QBleed®, QThrombosis®and QStatins®, which give individualised patient risk of type 2 diabetes, kidney failure, hip and other osteoporotic fracture, an undiagnosed cancer or of developing cancer later, of stroke, of haemorrhage, of thrombosis , and the risk/benefit profile of taking statins respectively.
QDiabetes®
Provides individualised patient risk of type 2 diabetes.
QKidney®
Provides individualised patient risk of kidney failure.
QFracture®
Provides individualised patient risk of hip and other osteoporotic fractures.
QCancer®
Provides individualised patient risk of an undiagnosed cancer or of developing cancer later.
QStroke®
Provides individualised patient risk of stroke.
QBleed®
Provides individualised patient risk of haemorrhage.
QThrombosis®
Provides individualised patient risk of thrombosis.
QStatins®
Provides individualised patient risk/benefit profile of taking statins respectively.
We also developed QAdmissions®, to predict risk of emergency hospital admissions, and its sister scores QMortality®and QFrailty®, risk of death and a principled measure of frailty respectively, all three looking over a two year horizon. QAdmissions®scores have been calculated for millions of people in the UK since its release.
QAdmissions®
Provided to predict risk of emergency hospital admissions over a two year horizon.
QMortality®
Provided to predict risk of death over a two year horizon.
QFrailty®
Provided to supply a principled measure of frailty over a two year horizon.
The science behind each algorithm is published in peer reviewed journals and the implementation of the heart of the algorithms are published as open source software under either the GNU Lesser General Public Licence or the GNU Affero General Public Licence. This is for transparency, to help wide accessibility and to stimulate further research.
Endeavour Predict CIC produces fully featured closed source .NET and Java software development kits for its risk scores, together with appropriate test data and support, to enable system suppliers to integrate them with confidence and to be formally accredited by us.
Endeavour Predict produces several tools which generate risk scores. Collectively we call them QTools®.
QRisk®4
Endeavour Predict produces several tools which generate risk scores.
EP Predictors
The calculators include statistical risk predictors for cardiovascular disease (QRISK3, QRISK2), Diabetes (QDiabetes), Common cancers (QCancer), Frailty risk (QFrailty) , Emergency hospital admissions (QAdmissions) , and fracture from falls (QFracture) and other calculators are added on a regular basis.
Discovery Data Service
Discovery is based on the hypothesis that if health related data is brought together at the level of the individual, stored at the level of a medium-size residential population, made available via a common information model, and used for individual and population-based decision support, great benefits to health can accrue.
Ontology Services
The ontology services can be categorised into two main forms. The first being an application that enables people to view and maintain ontologies, value sets, information models and query definitions. The next being a set of (REST) APIs so that the resources can be extracted and used by other systems i.e. integrated into other systems.
Information Manager
The Endeavour information manager is an extensive application and set of deployable services designed to help informaticians and software developers to understand health data, and provide utilities for data modelling, query definition, concept set definition and ontology servers.
ASSIGN
In partnership with researchers at Queen Mary University of London’s Clinical Effectiveness Group, Endeavour Health has developed an address-matching algorithm to link patient health records to geospatial information.
