Description

We observe significantly fewer matches for fluid administration in the inputevents table for the new mimic-iv version 3.1 data with anchor_year_group = "2020 - 2022".

Note that there is only 1/2 as many matches for each itemid for anchor_year_group = "2020 - 2022", both in absolute numbers and if normalized by length of stay.

Is this expected? Fluid management is an important task in the ICU. We were surprised to see such a drop in matches for the new mimic-iv 3.1 data.
