Scottish Drug Misuse Database B1 Scottish Drug Misuse Database Services & Treatment The Scottish Drug Misuse Database (SDMD) offers a profile of drug misusers based on reports submitted on individuals when they first attend a service for assessment of their drug misuse problems. The information presented relates to new patients/clients. A ‘new’ patient/ client is defined as any person who, at the time of presenting, is not currently in contact with a service that provides specialist assessment of a client’s drug misuse care needs. From April 2006 the new SMR25a form was introduced. Changes to the data collection mean that trend information cannot be presented and figures are not directly comparable with those previously published from the SMR24 form (see background information for further details on the changes). It is important to note that the percentages quoted below are based on the number of individuals on which data for each specific question are available i.e. they are not based on the total number of individuals reported to the database. Further detail on ‘information available’ is provided within the tables. Key Points 2006/07 Overview ■ In 2006/07, 12,222 ‘new’ individuals were reported to the Scottish Drugs Misuse database (SDMD). This corresponds to a rate of 253 per 100,000 of the Scottish population (Table B1.1). ■ The male attendance rate was more than twice the female attendance rate (354 per 100,000 population for males, 156 per 100,000 population for females) (Tables B1.2 and B1.3). ■ Of those reporting illicit drug use, 68% reported using heroin (6,756 individuals) (Tables B1.8 and B1.9). ■ Over half (58%) of those under the age of 25 years old reporting illicit drug use reported using heroin (Table B1.11). ■ Twenty-eight per cent of all individuals (for whom information is available) reported that they had injected in the month prior to seeking treatment. Forty-three per cent reported that they had never injected (Tables B1.21, B1.22 and B1.23). ■ Twenty-nine per cent of current injectors reported that they had shared needles/ syringes in the previous month (Tables B1.27 and B1.28). ■ Of current injectors: 61% reported that they had been tested for Hepatitis B; 63% for Hepatitis C and 58% for HIV prior to seeking treatment (Table B1.31). ■ Sixty-six per cent of individuals reported that more than a year had elapsed between the onset of problem drug use and treatment first being sought (Table B1.20). Geographical profile ■ In 2006/07, of those reporting use of heroin, 24% (1,636 individuals) were resident in NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde; 18% (1,186 individuals) were resident in NHS Lothian; 11% (757 individuals) were resident in NHS Fife; and 10% (649 individuals) were resident in NHS Grampian (Table B1.8). ■ Of those reporting cocaine use, 44% (470 individuals) were resident in NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde; 14% (151 individuals) were resident in NHS Lothian; and 9% (97 individuals) were resident in NHS Lanarkshire (Table B1.8). ■ 504 individuals reported crack cocaine use in 2006/07. Of these individuals 40% (203 individuals) were resident in NHS Grampian; 25% (126 individuals) were resident in NHS Lothian; and 19% (95 individuals) were resident in NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde (Table B1.8). 30 Drug Misuse Statistics Scotland 2007
