Query about table D_ITEM, labevents and chatevens

Open zqaccepted opened this issue 2 years ago • 2 comments

HI

Thank you for your attention and kindly help.

I found many similar items in table D_ITEM when querying glucose.(MIMICIII-V1.4) For example, 'glucose' and 'glucose (70-105)'. What does '70-105' mean? At the same time, I also found that the names of some projects include 'soft', so what does this mean. In addition, is there any difference between the measurement results recorded in tables that are 'labevents' and 'chartevents'. The last question is that why do the same items have different ITEMID? Such as, in D_ITEMS, LABEL is 'ionized calcium' which has three different ITEMID? (1350, 816, 8177)

Thank you very much.

About four years ago, I studied the relationships among the various glucose measurements in MIMIC-III. Here is a pointer to my R Notebook from that investigation. Hope this is helpful. https://www.dropbox.com/s/37u5twgtdceo53k/ying-mimic3a.nb.html?dl=0
