Ultra Sound Screening For Aortic Aneurysms

EDM number 231 in 2009-10, proposed by Andrew Mackinlay on 25/11/2009.
Categorised under the topic of Health services.

That this House expresses its dismay that the Department of Health does not know the number of hospitals as general practices providing ultra sound screening for aortic aneurysms; considers that this information should be held centrally in order to ensure that the enormous life-saving benefits of this technology can be planned and maximised; and deems that failure of the Department not to remedy this information deficit with immediate effect would be a serious abdication of responsibility and urges the Secretary of State to personally direct his Department in this regard.

This motion has been signed by a total of 29 MPs, 1 of these signatures have been withdrawn.
