Appendix B – Analytical tools which could be considered to help prioritise health issues identified

Heath Triangle

The health triangle is an analytical tool that can assist in:

  • Identifying potentially important health issues for the population
  • Reviewing the associations between health conditions, determinant factors and health functioning (see previous definitions)
  • Structuring the collection and presentation of data to compile a useful profile.

The health triangle should be used with the target population and all main stakeholders to achieve consensus about priorities for action.

Another one is STAR which is a MCDA  – link here https://www.health.org.uk/resource-and-toolkits/toolkits/star-a-tool-for-commissioners#:~:text=for%20Star%20facilitators-,Star%20methodology,a%20range%20of%20different%20criteria.
