The NMPA clinical audit measures cover various aspects of maternity and neonatal care provided by NHS maternity services in England, Scotland and Wales. This information is intended for use by healthcare professionals, managers, commissioners, collaborative networks and national organisations, and by women and families using the services.

> Interactive data
The NMPA organisational surveys were carried out in 2017 and 2019. They provided an overview of care provision by NHS maternity services in all settings across England, Scotland and Wales. They were snapshots of the organisation of care in January 2017 and January 2019, and reflected the changes being implemented as a result of maternity and neonatal services reviews and other initiatives.

In addition to the continuous clinical audit and the organisational survey, the NMPA undertakes a programme of work to evaluate the feasibility of introducing new clinical measures. These ‘snapshot audits’ are time limited evaluations of the NMPA’s dataset with additional linkages to new datasets where appropriate.
