LAB_CD4
Could anyone tell me how you would program the following QA check:
CW009 -CD4 counts spike up or down suddenly (large change in less than a year)-.
How would you qualify 'spike uu or down suddenly'
Thanks,

tblMED and tblART: define category of medication/treatment 4847 2
Started by SuperUser Account
At the HICDEP version 1.60 it is described that the tblMED holds type, date , value and unit for other HIV related medicines. I think we should change this into next version into tblMED holds type, date, value and unit for medication/treatment.
Moreover I would like to introduce a variable (e.g MED_CAT) to define a category of medication/treatment e.g. HIV, HBV and HCV.
I would also suggest to introduce a similar variable in the tblART to define a category of medication/treatme...

And optionally the smoking history:

Fixed dose, generics and trade names 6351 0
Started by SuperUser Account
Dear all,
As discussed in the recent meetings, there is interest in capturing data on fixed dose drugs and generics by recording trade names.
Please share any comments you have on this topic, e.g. regarding how this should relate to the current tables tblMED and tblART, how trade names should be coded, any issues with capturing this data, etc.
Kind regards, Mark

The current Ethnicity variable is catered to an American audience. COHERE and CASCADE both agree this variable should be re-evaluated and re-formatted so it can be universal.

We suggest there to be a further discussion on Ethnicity and to invite relevant individuals to this discussion. Please sug...

Part of work package 3 (task 3.9) indicates commitment to exploring Hepatitis C. To carry out this work, more HCV data needs to be collected, in particular HCV tretment, HCV genotype and subtype. I'm suggesting we add a HCV table to HICDEP with similar specification as tblART. Please see below for my version of the proposed table.
I also would like to suggest adding two fields to tblLAB_VIRO, namely HCV geotype and HCV subtype.

Following the discussion of the February TC, I went ahead and made the changes such that tblLAB_RES and its level-specific subtables may also encode HCV resistance test results. It turned out to require a few changes we didn't anticipate in the first place, so I'd like to encourage you review the current draft.
As discussed, I added a variable VIRUSTYPE to tblLAB_RES which allows to distinguish HCV and HIV entries.
However, this change also impli...
