Innovating for impact, delivering for patients

global scale, local impact

Driving efficiency and improving outcomes through diagnostics

For over a century, Roche has stood alongside UK healthcare professionals and patients. We are a global leader in diagnostics and 755 million of our tests were used to confirm, rule out or manage health conditions in the UK in 2023. But that’s just the start of what we do.

 

We have also been a proud partner to the NHS since it was created. Today our experts support teams across the healthcare system to develop and deliver tailored, practical solutions that enhance efficiency and improve patient experience and outcomes.

 

With Roche, you don’t get a typical supplier relationship. You get a committed partner who will work with you to understand your challenges, and develop and deliver solutions.

Case studies & local impact

Improving the diagnosis and treatment of heart failure

Heart failure is a leading cause of unplanned hospital visits and the primary diagnosis in 100,000 UK admissions each year.1  Early diagnosis is critical, but the main symptoms are indicative of several other conditions making it hard to identify.

 

We are working with a range of healthcare providers to support them in unlocking the potential for NICE-approved N-terminal pro-hormone B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) testing to improve2 heart failure diagnosis.

Transforming the pre-eclampsia pathway

Roche Healthcare Consultants worked with clinicians at the Doncaster and Bassetlaw Teaching Hospitals NHS Foundation Trust and experts at Yorkshire and Humber Academic Health Science Network to transform their pre-eclampsia pathway. 

 

Today, 5,000 women who give birth at the Trust each year benefit from faster diagnosis, earlier treatment and better outcomes for themselves and their babies.

 

The success of the pathway and the partnership approach gave Doncaster Royal Infirmary confidence to expand the service across Yorkshire.

Accelerating the diagnosis of Alzheimer’s disease

Roche Diagnostics supported Tallaght University Hospital (TUH), Dublin in fully verifying three new assays in the clinical service repertoire. The three assays – CSF Elecsys® Phospho-Tau (181P), Total -Tau and β-Amyloid (1-42) – have all been successfully integrated into the clinical pathway for diagnosing Alzheimer’s disease.

 

With the help of RHCs, TUH collaborated with the Royal Victoria Hospital, Belfast, to share samples and clinical expertise, enabling them to introduce the new diagnosis pathway successfully.

 

“Introducing Alzheimer’s disease biomarkers gave scientists in TUH an opportunity to develop their expertise.”
