Filters data down to the target populations for Trauma-08, and categorizes records to identify needed information for the calculations.
Identifies key categories to records that are 911 request for patients whose pain score was lowered during the EMS encounter. based on specific criteria and calculates related ECG measures. This function segments the data by age into adult and pediatric populations.

A dataframe or tibble containing at least the eVitals fields needed.
- erecord_01_col
The column representing the EMS record unique identifier.
- incident_date_col
Column that contains the incident date. This defaults to
NULLas 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
NULLas it is optional in case not available due to PII restrictions.- epatient_15_col
Column representing the patient's numeric age agnostic of unit.
- epatient_16_col
Column representing the patient's age unit ("Years", "Months", "Days", "Hours", or "Minutes").

Column indicating whether or not there was an injury.
- eresponse_05_col
Column that contains eResponse.05 or the response type.
- evitals_01_col
The column for the date/time vital signs were taken on the patient.
- evitals_27_col
Column giving the patient's indication of pain from a scale of 0-10.
- evitals_27_initial_col
The column for the initial pain scale score. Default is
NULL.- evitals_27_last_col
The column for the last pain scale score. Default is
NULL.- edisposition_28_col
Column name for patient care disposition details.
- transport_disposition_col
One or more unquoted column names (such as edisposition.12, edisposition.30) containing transport disposition for an EMS event identifying whether a transport occurred and by which unit.
Value
A list that contains the following:
a tibble with counts for each filtering step,
a tibble for each population of interest
a tibble for the initial population
a tibble for the total dataset with computations
a tibble with a summary of missingness for each column in each table
