The respiratory_02 function calculates metrics for pediatric and adult respiratory populations based on pre-defined criteria, such as low oxygen saturation and specific medication or procedure codes. It returns a summary table of the overall, pediatric, and adult populations, showing counts and proportions.

Usage

respiratory_02(
  df = NULL,
  patient_scene_table = NULL,
  response_table = NULL,
  vitals_table = NULL,
  medications_table = NULL,
  procedures_table = NULL,
  erecord_01_col,
  incident_date_col = NULL,
  patient_DOB_col = NULL,
  epatient_15_col,
  epatient_16_col,
  eresponse_05_col,
  evitals_12_col,
  emedications_03_col,
  eprocedures_03_col,
  confidence_interval = FALSE,
  method = c("wilson", "clopper-pearson"),
  conf.level = 0.95,
  correct = TRUE,
  ...
)

Arguments

df

A data frame containing incident data with each row representing an observation.

patient_scene_table

A data.frame or tibble containing at least epatient and escene fields as a fact table.

response_table

A data.frame or tibble containing at least the eresponse fields needed for this measure's calculations.

vitals_table

A data.frame or tibble containing at least the evitals fields needed for this measure's calculations.

medications_table

A data.frame or tibble containing only the emedications fields needed for this measure's calculations.

procedures_table

A data.frame or tibble containing only the eprocedures fields needed for this measure's calculations.

erecord_01_col

Column name for eRecord.01, used to form a unique patient ID.

incident_date_col

Column that contains the incident date. This defaults to NULL as it is optional in case not available due to PII restrictions.

patient_DOB_col

Column that contains the patient's date of birth. This defaults to NULL as it is optional in case not available due to PII restrictions.

epatient_15_col

integer Column giving the calculated age value.

epatient_16_col

Column giving the provided age unit value.

eresponse_05_col

Column name for response codes (e.g., incident type).

evitals_12_col

Column name for oxygen saturation (SpO2) values.

emedications_03_col

Column name for medication codes.

eprocedures_03_col

Column name for procedure codes.

confidence_interval

[Experimental] Logical. If TRUE, the function calculates a confidence interval for the proportion estimate.

method

[Experimental]Character. Specifies the method used to calculate confidence intervals. Options are "wilson" (Wilson score interval) and "clopper-pearson" (exact binomial interval). Partial matching is supported, so "w" and "c" can be used as shorthand.

conf.level

[Experimental]Numeric. The confidence level for the interval, expressed as a proportion (e.g., 0.95 for a 95% confidence interval). Defaults to 0.95.

correct

[Experimental]Logical. If TRUE, applies a continuity correction to the Wilson score interval when method = "wilson". Defaults to TRUE.

...

optional additional arguments to pass onto dplyr::summarize.

Value

A data.frame summarizing results for two population groups (All, Adults and Peds) with the following columns:

  • pop: Population type (All, Adults, and Peds).

  • numerator: Count of incidents meeting the measure.

  • denominator: Total count of included incidents.

  • prop: Proportion of incidents meeting the measure.

  • prop_label: Proportion formatted as a percentage with a specified number of decimal places.

  • lower_ci: Lower bound of the confidence interval for prop (if confidence_interval = TRUE).

  • upper_ci: Upper bound of the confidence interval for prop (if confidence_interval = TRUE).
