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.

The column containing information on the presence of injury.
- eresponse_05_col
The column representing the 911 response type.
- evitals_01_col
The column for the time of pain scale measurement.
- evitals_27_col
The column for the pain scale score. Default is
NULL
.- 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
The column for patient care disposition details.
- transport_disposition_col
