Fast ICD-10 and ICD-9 comorbidities, decoding and validation in R. NB use main instead of master for default branch.
Currently, `icd` does some validation and transformations behind the scenes, e.g. while finding co-morbidities. It would be both clearer and faster to have an explicit cleaning step. This could summarize...
At least two issues have arisen because of this. It should be clear, but flooding user with warnings is not ideal either. Possible solutions: - warn every time - message...
http://anesthesiology.pubs.asahq.org/article.aspx?articleid=1933100 http://my.clevelandclinic.org/services/anesthesiology/outcomes-research/risk-stratification-index There are four models for length of stay, in-hospital, 30d mortality, and 1yr mortality. There are a number of caveats about data use, but ultimately, the goal would...
Strings are slow. R has an internal 'factor' mechanism, so each unique string only has one memory address. We can exploit this to speed up string processing (assuming same encoding...
`icd` is adaptable to alternative annual and national versions of ICD codes. I would like to support this activity if contributors are able to be involved in preparing their local...
I would like this package to be useful in developing countries, and so would love to offer internationalized messages and documentation. Anything is better than nothing and this can be...
As somebody wanting to use the different hierarchies found within the data folder in Python, it would be convenient if it would be possible to provide the RData files as...
"This behaviour arises partly because c() has dual purposes: as well as it’s primary duty of combining vectors, it has a secondary duty of stripping attributes. (For example, ?POSIXct suggests...
For other parsing code, I've written some fairly basic tests which just verify the output data is the same as the data stored in the package, and some specific tests...
